Every person bom in the Greater Lebanon territory and who did not acquire a foreign nationality, upon birth, by affiliation. Every person born in the Greater Lebanon territory of unknown parents or parents of unknown nationality" (Article 1).5 A woman may transmit her nationality to her children in the event of the death of her husband, or if the child has an unknown or stateless father. Her role in this case is limited to making it possible for her husband to obtain Tunisian nationality in accordance with naturalisation laws without being subjected to the five-year residency requirement under Article 20 of the National Code. In contrast, Yemeni women are required to separate from their husband and return to Yemen. Article 14 dictates that in order to recover her original Yemeni nationality, a woman must terminate her marriage or at least reside in Yemen. This represents a discriminatory practice towards Yemeni women.
