Who Is a Stateless Person?

A stateless person is someone who is not considered a national by any country under the operation of its law. This can happen due to:

  • Gaps in nationality laws

  • Political or ethnic conflict

  • Loss or denial of citizenship

  • Collapse or dissolution of a former state

Being stateless leaves individuals unable to return to any country, access travel documents, or exercise basic rights. The UK provides a legal pathway to apply for leave to remain as a stateless person.

What Can You Apply For?

If you are stateless and currently in the UK, you may be eligible to:

📝 Apply to Stay in the UK as a Stateless Person
If you meet the Home Office requirements and can show that no other country recognizes you as a citizen.

🛂 Apply for a Home Office Travel Document
If you have been granted leave to remain or humanitarian protection in the UK but are unable to obtain a passport.

These applications require strong supporting evidence — including proof that other countries have refused to recognize you as a citizen.
