Abstract
The goal of this paper is to analyse the procedure of the loss of citizenship in Croatia and Slavonia in the period from the Bach regime to the fall of the Monarchy. For analysis the author has used relevant regulations, foreign and domestic documents and archival materials available at the Public Records Office. The analysis of legislation frame and administrative practice has lead to the conclusion that the Austrian system of citizenship loss had been introduced during the Bach regime.The mentioned system of citizenship loss was based on an attitude of undesirable emigration thus every emigration resulted in the loss of citizenship. System changes regarding loss of citizenship emerged in 1880 when the Law on acquisition and loss of Hungarian citizenship came to force. The law also introduced the integral system of citizenship loss. The significance of the law was that a new rule of citizenship loss due to the ten-year absence from the state was introduced, which deems more liberal attitude of the legislator towards emigration.
