Our goals and services

Our goal is to provide academics, governments, international organisations and NGOs with information for research and evidence-based evaluation of public policies.

We do not offer information or counselling to individuals interested in acquiring the citizenship of a particular country and we do not encourage experts in our network to answer such requests.

The EUDO CITIZENSHIP website is unique in combining extensive and up to date data on citizenship in the EU, intelligent analysis of all legal and political aspects of citizenship and breaking news on the subject. At last, the issue of trans-European citizenship has truly come alive for the benefit of us all.

Citizenship Case Law

In recent decades courts have become more actively involved in decisions about citizenship status and rights. EUDO CITIZENSHIP has created a database collecting some of the most important national, European and international court decisions. This is not intended to be a comprehensive database.


Cases selected meet at least one of the following criteria:

  • having a wider normative effect
  • interpreting key concepts of nationality law, such as affiliation, dual nationality, nationality by birth, statelessness, etc.
  • illustrating specific national concerns about certain groups or historical conditions
  • concerning the exercise of executive discretion
  • involving human rights claims
