In some circumstances, a person who has lost Hokorian citizenship may be able to restore it.
Restoration after renouncing as a minor
A person may restore citizenship if:
- They renounced citizenship while they were a minor, and
- They apply to restore it after reaching adulthood.
Restoration may not be available where a lawful instrument prohibits it.
Restoration after renouncing without capacity
A person may also restore citizenship if they renounced it while lacking legal capacity.
Restoration after revocation
Citizenship may also be restored following revocation where the Koru determines that restoration should occur and any required declaration has been made.
Determination by the Koru
Restoration of citizenship is subject to determination by the Koru, who exercises the authority of the State under the Constitution.
