If the marriage contract is legally void, she shall continue to hold the Yemeni nationality (Article 10).7 This provision, however, does not apply to a man marrying a foreign woman. The loss of nationality or obtainment of a certificate of abandonment can, in certain cases, render the Yemeni woman stateless. Other MENA countries could withdraw their reservations to the CEDAW Convention and reform their nationality laws to establish genuine equality between men and women in this field (Table 7.5). Although, as the examples in this chapter have shown, a number of Arab countries have already legally established full equality between a mother and a father in their ability to transfer their nationality to their children, or between men and women to their spouse, many others have not and may consider amending the current legislation to address these gaps.
