← 🇧🇪 Chambre des représentants/PROPOSITION DE LOIbe-56-0917

Proposition de loi modifiant le Code de la nationalité belge en vue d'harmoniser les délais applicables en matière de déchéance de la nationalité belge.

Stage en_commissionUpdated 3mo ago

This is a private member's bill tabled in the Belgian Chamber of Representatives. It would amend the Belgian Nationality Code to align the time limits that apply when the state considers stripping someone of Belgian nationality (deprivation or 'déchéance'). The aim, as the title indicates, is to make the deadlines consistent across the different cases covered by the Code. The changes would primarily affect dual or naturalised Belgian citizens whose nationality could be subject to deprivation proceedings. Authorities handling nationality cases would also be affected by any new timing rules. This summary is based on metadata only, not the full bill text, so the specific deadlines and grounds involved are not described here.
