(June 2008) </Td> </Tr> <P> Under the 1944 Convention on International Civil Aviation, articles 17--21, all aircraft have the nationality of the state in which they are registered, and may not have multiple nationalities . The law of the aircraft's nationality is applicable on the aircraft . However, nationality laws of any country already apply everywhere, since it is for each country to determine who are its nationals . So this convention has no effect on nationality laws . The convention does not say that a birth on a country's aircraft is to be treated as a birth in that country for the purposes of nationality . </P> <P> Under the 1961 Convention on the Reduction of Statelessness, for the purposes of determining the obligations under the convention, a birth on a ship or aircraft in international waters or airspace shall be treated as a birth in the country of the ship or aircraft's registration . However, the convention applies only to births where the child would otherwise be stateless . Since in most cases a child would be covered by one or more countries' jus sanguinis at birth (getting the same citizenship as its parents), this convention rarely comes into play . In addition, there are still very few member states that are party to the 1961 convention . </P> <Table> <Tr> <Td> </Td> <Td> The examples and perspective in this article deal primarily with the United States and do not represent a worldwide view of the subject .
