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 <a href="/wiki/1961_Convention_on_the_Reduction_of_Statelessness" class="mw-redirect" title="1961 Convention on the Reduction of Statelessness">1961 Convention on the Reduction of Statelessness</a>, for the purposes of determining the obligations under the convention, a birth on a ship or aircraft in <a href="/wiki/International_waters" title="International waters">international waters</a> 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' <i>jus sanguini</i> 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> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Canada">Canada</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Birth_aboard_aircraft_and_ships&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Canada"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Children born in Canadian airspace are automatically extended Canadian citizenship, but birth in or over international waters is assessed on a case-by-case basis.
