This report accompanies the launch of an updated version, v3, of the GLOBALCIT Citizenship Law Dataset. The Dataset includes information on the citizenship laws in 191 countries in the period 2020 to 2024 and longitudinal data on global dual citizenship acceptance since 1960. After introducing the ‘big picture’ of the variety of birthright citizenship regulations around the world and the main other ways to acquire and lose citizenship, the report highlights three themes: gender equality, immigrant inclusion, and security of status.
