Notwithstanding paragraph 1, a State may exercise diplomatic protection in respect of a person who is its national at the date of the official presentation of the claim but was not a national at the date of injury, provided that the person had the nationality of a predecessor State or lost his or her previous nationality and acquired, for a reason unrelated to the bringing of the claim, the nationality of the former State in a manner not inconsistent with international law.
2. 尽管有第1款的规定，一国对在正式提出求偿之日为其国民但在受到损害之日不是其国民的人，可行使外交保护，但条件是该人曾具有被继承国的国籍，或者已丧失原国籍，并且基于与提出求偿无关的原因、以不违反国际法的方式已获得该国的国籍。
