Hungary: Information for stateless people and those at risk of statelessness fleeing Ukraine or require a ‘transit document’. There have also been reports of non-Ukrainian and non-EU nationals being refused entry at the Romanian-Hungarian border. It is reported that children born in Hungary to parents fleeing the war in Ukraine are registered as having ‘unknown nationality’ on their birth certificates. As a result, parents may face difficulties obtaining proof of their child’s nationality or statelessness. There is a lack of awareness about the possible difficulties resulting from being registered as having ‘unknown nationality’, which include a risk of statelessness. Children born to parents who are Ukrainian nationals may be able to later register with the Ukrainian authorities, but children born to parents of other nationalities, including those who are beneficiaries of international protection, or stateless parents, face a heightened risk.
