Country Position Paper: Statelessness in Myanmar This document provides information on the profiles of stateless individuals and persons who may be at risk of statelessness due to nationality or civil documentation problems in Myanmar. The analysis presented here is based on a desk review of relevant sources, conducted between January and March 2019. The research was informed by and draws from the previous work of the Institute on Statelessness and Inclusion in collaborating with partners (academics, community members and human right activists) to monitor developments relating to statelessness in Myanmar since 2014. A full bibliography of the resources used can be found at the end of this document. Please note that the information presented should not be understood to be fully comprehensive of all nationality and statelessness problems in Myanmar. There may be other situations in which statelessness arises in the country, or other specificities, that differ from the information given here. 2
