The Venice Commission therefore recommends:

-Before the next elections, ensuring that all Haitian nationals be in a position to take part in the electoral process; limiting the restrictions to the right to be elected to cases of criminal convictions, while considering whether the political rights should be suspended for citizens awaiting trial for serious crimes;
-After the next elections: reconsidering the rules on access to and loss of Haitian citizenship and the restrictions to the rights of double nationals.
