I'm from Argentina, one of these countries mentioned in the list. I can't officially renounce my citizenship, but that would be the less of my concerns, since i know really well my country, and they don't have the will, neither the means to enforce a taxation system or anything similar if you are outside the borders Basically, if i leave the country, then my government leaves me alone. Still, you can always come back and the country will never deny your entrance or any of your rights.

I'm stateless. It's better than potentially being tracked down by the IRS for not knowing something and being extradited despite not even owing money. I was lucky that I had some savings, or I'd never be able to afford renouncing. They really are trying to stop people from leaving. My experience at the embassy was very threatening and uncomfortable. They literally threatened to take my money and then deny me. They even questioned my competency and ability to renounce. Then they debated my reasons for leaving. I shouldn't have to justify myself. But, the hassle was worth it. Going into business with my ex. No insane paperwork for me or potential 10,000 USD fines for some honest mistake on convoluted tax paperwork. No having to pay money to a country I'll never set foot in again! Not like the taxes ever go to something meaningful to begin with in the states.
If I wanted to leave I would burn my passports and paperwork and leave. That would be it. If the US Federal Agencies can't even follow their own procedures, they cant expect their citizens to do so either.

Why? Nation states came to exist on the grounds that people of the same ethnicity should be citizens of the same country. If one's ethnicity can't be changed, it makes sense that one's nationality shouldn't change either.

That shucks and is silly
And still, it has its pros. If you are living in Germany and want to apply for citizenship, you have tu renounce you previous citizenship. But if you're from Argentina you get to keep it, hence having 2 passports, which is quite convenient.

This is why I don't like the idea of having several citizenships. All it takes is for Turkey or Dominica to impose global taxation of citizens living abroad and make it illegal to give up your citizenship at the same time.
Great video Andrew! As an Argentinian, I'm actually very concerned with the way the country and taxation policies are going. If the government decides to have taxation by citizenship (God forbid!), I think the only option would be to sue the Argentinian State in a long process, so they may release your citizenship or allow a carve out from the taxation if you live in other place.
I was going to say the same. Argentina may get tough in Argentina. I can never see a cooperation or pressure being put on any other country. Do you really think, Uruguay will start “cooperation” with Argentina?
Maybe you can't renounce it but I've seen a workaround that a couple of people used. They claim political or religious or ethnic prosecution from their countries, get a "UN passport" (don't know exactly the technical name of the thing) and then apply for another country. A couple of Argentinian fellows here in Monaco did that and are now proud Italians based on their roots.
Half of Argentina has an Italian passport in their back pockets. But you still cannot get rid of your citizenship in Argentina, you just have another passport. I am one of the 4% of people from Argentina who does NOT qualify for Italian citizenship, argh!

You are not allowed to give up your Russian citizenship if you don't have another one or an official document stating that you will get a new one as soon as the old one is terminated. The other two reasons they won't let you go are if you have unfulfilled tax obligations or you are a 18-27 y.o. (will be shifting to 20-30 y.o. in the near future) male and haven't performed your military service. However, the military service part does not apply if you are abroad and applying through a consulate. The major difference between applying in Russia and abroad is that in the former case you will be granted a permanent residence permit and in the latter case you get nothing.

Andrew, Costa Rica permits dual citizenship, which is important in the context of what you're discussing, because indeed it also disallows renunciation of national citizenship EXCEPT under a singular proviso. Article 16 of the Political Constitution originally established that Costa Rican citizenship is not lost and cannot be renounced. But a Constitutional Council in 2009 determined that the Costa Rican nationality may be forfeited,, as long as the former Costa Rican does not remain stateless, that is, without another nationality. In fact, Law No. 1155 reads as follows: Article 3 - The quality of Costa Rican is lost: 1) By adoption of another nationality; 2) When the Costa Rican by naturalization, voluntarily becomes absent from the national territory for more than six consecutive years, unless shown to have remained linked to Costa Rica. (Note: This was a tacit repeal of Article 1 in Law No. 7514 of June 6, 1995, that amended Article 16 of the Political Constitution, which established that Costa Rican citizenship cannot be lost at all and could be,, therefore, considered unrenounceable.) What I find currently troubling is that, as a member of the OEDC, Costa Rica is attempting even as we speak to become another nation capable of taxing foreign-earned income. This country has a VORACIOUS and grossly irresponsible Central Government that has exponentially grown its size in the last 15 years relative to the nation's GDP that has NOT grown exponentially, and it cannot deliver on unfunded liabilities coming due. So, rather than reduce its own size, it is hunting for tribute from wherever it can find it, especially after the COVID Economy dried up its main sources of income. And it refuses to reduce its expenditures because it believes its own marketing about Costa Rica being superior to countries in the region due to its form of government, which couldn't be a more stupid reason for continuing with its bankrupted public policy of deficit spending and tax increases. As deficit spending has only continued to rise, sovereign debt credit rankings have plummeted, foreign capital infusion is drying up if not beginning to take flight from domestic investments,, and social unrest has mounted as unemployment remains in the double-digit range for over a year in an otherwise historically peaceful and relatively prosperous nation. 2021 is a pre-electoral year and there is a great deal of pent up anger bound to get unleashed at the ballot boxes early next year. So, stay tuned. Some serious changes are coming to Costa Rica.

@@hughmongous663 I've not said that i would do that. I personally wouldn't. I can understand why people are doing it, tho. High income tax can go as high as 90% of all your earning. That's a lot of tax for someone who doesn't have to do anything with the country beside having a citizenship.
Passports are about freedom. I don't know why someone would choose Statelessness. In this world, I don't see how you could get anything done or travel anywhere without a passport.
Statelessness is another way of saying that you hold yourself Sovereign. The flip side is that you have no Treaty Of Westphalia protections of being either a subject or citizen of a Sovereign State. If any country that you are momentarily in or have assets in decides to take all your assets you have no backup but your own force. Kal-El can afford to be stateless, but Clark Kent cannot, unless his friends and family members are publicly under Superman’s protection.
And what human individual secure their own sovereignty against a State? I would be curious to learn about people who are stateless but who are also wealthy. I would be very surprised if such a person existed.
Passports only are about freedom if you come from a majority white or a few select Asian country, and your country is not affiliated with Russia. Eg. A wealthy South African will face far more challenges travelling than a young jobless addict from the US, simply because or the passport.
You could try terminating your SSN. People do this when a family member dies. You could get id's from other countries (so you're not stateless), have your friends vouch for your "death," or pose as the family member while asking the government to terminate your id for "them."

The UK system is pretty easy, not that I’ve ever looked into it much. There is a fee and you can renounce if you are applying for, or already have, a foreign citizenship. If you get denied your application in the other country and therefore are stateless for more than 6 months the UK will cancel the renunciation and return your British citizenship. We also have no military service or citizenship tax or compulsory voting.
if a country prohibits renunciation unless you are applying for, or already have, a foreign citizenship, then it is **not** easy. Such condition doesn't account for: - Latvia non-citizens. - Uruguayan legal citizens. - Others who can already avail themselves protection in another state but have hardships of acquiring another citizenship for whatever reason. If you can't invoke article 7(1)(b) of the 1961 convention on the reduction of statelessness and thus articles 13 and 14 of udhr, then renouncing citizenship is not easy. British nationality law has no exceptions to not allowing renunciation if you aren't applying for a foreign citizenship or don't have a foreign citizenship, technically a violation of the 1961 convention on the reduction of statelessness (more specially article 7(1)(b)), how ironic.
I don't know if the laws are still the same as when I seriously looked into dual citizenship information back in the 1980s. However, some countries didn't let you become a naturalized citizen of their country unless you renounced your citizenship of your prior country. Some countries had laws that once you became a naturalized citizen of another country you lost your citizenship in your country. However, the most intriguing I learned at that time was that if you had dual citizenship by birth or derived from your parents some countries had laws where the moment you present your legal identity documents from country A to a government official of country B you were declaring yourself to NOT be a citizen of country B. The main reason I looked into it back then is I had a good friend who had dual Australian / USA citizenship derived from an Australian father and a US mother in 1950. To confuse matters further he was born on a UK registered ship in the middle of the Indian Ocean and a question was raised about the possibility of them have a UK citizenship as well. His parents both registered his birth with Australia and the USA. However, when he needed a passport to travel for work he spoke with the US Embassy staff and they advised him to get passports from both countries as there were advantages to using an Australian Passport in some countries and it made travel into and out of Australia easier. The big thing they told him was to NEVER show his Australian Passport to a USA Border Control or Embassy official as doing so was him declaring to an official he was NOT a US citizen and thus he would automatically lose his US citizenship. I didn't believe him at first, but spoke with the US< Embassy staff in Canberra and they confirmed that advice was true. Now it seems their laws make it harder to cease being a US Citizen.
I don't know who told you the untrue information about Iran. But it's not difficult to renounce Iranian citizenship. It's impossible. Only unless you've been naturalized from another country. In Iran there's almost no tax paid by people. Many pay nothing. Many don't at all. I've been to Iran. Just great people and beautiful scenes. I don't just understand the hostility of the West towards them. They are the victim of many horrible crimes such as an 8 year imposed war.
Supporting terrorism in the Middle East, killing U.S. soldiers in Iraq, bombing Jewish centers in Argentina, etc. That is why Iran has a bad reputation. Not the people, the government.
This is true. Since many Iranians can be dual citizen of another country where Dual citizenship are strictly prohibited since the other country knows that we cannot renounce our citizenship no matter what.
I would have retired from the military if it was not for the antics that the US Army pulled. If I had left the country after I became an Army officer, then at least I would have had a future.

I know that you can't renounce citizenship of some ex-Soviet countries without confirming that you're taking another citizenship. That definitely is the case in Russia, and I think that's the case in Kazakhstan too. I seen at least one Russian guy who filed a request demanding his citizenship be renounced but was denied by the court. However, you can still renounce it if you have a piece of paper confirming you're getting another citizenship. Regarding the statelessness reduction convention: it may be bad because it doesn't let you get out of a citizenship BUT one good thing this convention provides is a framework to enable stateless people to get a travel document. You can be stateless and get a non-citizen passport that DOES NOT give you visa free access but you bear no extra obligations as a citizen, and you don't have to be an asylum seeker or a refugee to get it - just show evidence that you have no citizenship (e.g. a document confirming your renunciation by the MOFA or another institution).
In the Argentinean case Andrew presents the case a bit different as the way the Argentinean Government see it. Is not that you cannot renounce.... it is that the Country always will consider you as a Citizen, even if you becomes a Citizen of another Country. They are not withholding you. Not sure Andrew knows exactly how the situation actually is.
Wikipedia says that an Argentinian citizen can only renounce his argentinian citizenship if he appears before a judge in the capital city of Buenos Aires so the argentinian judge would have to approve the request and them submit it to the government and then only if top government officials accept the application only then you will lose your Argentinian citizenship that's why it's so difficult and it was included in the video

Whilst this comment is being written 2yrs after the video came out, the following is interesting to note: ANY country can choose to declare / recognise / grant citizenship to anyone they want, at their discretion. All the govt has to do is pass a law, make a decree or declare a class / category of people as citizens. The worst part - those affected don't get a say, they never get a chance to refuse. The other worst part - NO country has to let you renounce - it's solely at their discretion and on their terms. What I mean by class / category of people is for example: * Everyone of [X] religion * Everyone persecuted by [X] regime * Everyone who was a citizen but renounced * Any grandchild of a person persecuted by [X] regime * Anyone who goes to [X] country where they'd otherwise pay less tax * Etc. Currently four countries declare people to be citizens by means of class / category without the people ever having a say. Of those four countries, two make it basically almost impossible to renounce whilst two make it impossible. One of the two makes it impossible to renounce if doing so would lower your taxes. My genuine fear is that when the "name brand" countries get desperate for taxes, they'll suddenly either make it easy to become a citizen or they'll start declaring classes / categories of people to be citizens.
International law (Nationality and / or citizenship law in this case) is above the laws governing WITHIN a country. I know of at least 2 families originating from the 5th country you mentioned in your video (Now living in Europe) who renounced their citizenship via lawyers! So a country can 'refuse' you your right of renouncing your citizenship all they want. International law says otherwise.
Being stuck with country A still holding you as a citizen, even if you live, work, and have citizenship in another country (country B), has drawbacks specifically with some government/military positions in country B.. it can delay or even prevent you from obtaining a security clearance in country B due to still being a "citizen" of country A

You may not be able to renounce but in the vast majority of cases you can still lose it indirectly by pledging allegiance to, holding public office, joining another country's armed forces etc. though you have go through more hoops doing it this way.
