<p>Neither the 1961 UN Convention on the Reduction of Statelessness or the 1954 Convention
relating to the status of stateless persons prohibit fees from being chargeable in
respect of citizenship applications. The Home Office does, however, waive fees for
stateless individuals up to the point of settlement (indefinite leave to remain) in
line with our obligations.</p><p>The Home Office has no current plans to specifically
review the policy applicable to stateless persons applying to register as a British
citizen, however the Home Office keeps its fees for immigration and nationality under
review.</p>
