BOUNDARIES OF CERTAIN QUOTA AREAS Section 201(c) of the Immigration and Nationality Act as amended by the act of October 3, 1965, provides that, "During the period from July 1, 1965, through June 30, 1968, the annual quota of any quota area shall be the same as that which existed for that area on June 30, 1965." The boundaries of a "quota area," in most instances, are the obvious present international boundaries. However, the international boundaries as of January 1938 are still effective as the boundaries of "quota areas" in certain parts of Europe and Asia, as indicated below. The following descriptions of certain "quota areas" are intended to include all cases where there might be some doubt as to the boundaries for quota purposes. They are listed alphabetically. Arabian Peninsula: A "quota area" comprising Bahrain, Qatar, the Trucial Sheikhdoms, and all other portions of the peninsula not specifically indicated. Bulgaria: The 1938 boundaries. China: Includes Manchuria, Inner Mongolia, Outer Mongolia, Sinkiang, and Tibet, within the 1938 boundaries of China; and also Taiwan. Czechoslovakia: The January 1938 boundaries (therefore, includes the Sudetenland areas, and Carpathian Ruthenia). Danzig, Free City of: The 1938 boundaries. Estonia: The 1938 boundaries. Finland: The 1938 boundaries. France: Each of the "overseas departments" created in 1946 (French Guiana, Guadeloupe, Martinique, and Réunion), each of the "overseas territories" (Comoro Islands, French Polynesia, French Somaliland, French southern and Antarctic territories (Kerguelen Islands, etc.), New Caledonia and dependencies, St. Pierre and Miquelon, Wallis and Futuna), and the condominium of New Hebrides is regarded as within the intent of section 202(c) of the act applying to a "colony or other component or dependent area." Germany: The 1938 boundaries. Great Britain and Northern Ireland: The colony or other dependent area to which the provisions of section 202(c) of the act apply individually correspond to official British usage. For example, the limitation of 653 each, within the quota of Great Britain and Northern Ireland will apply to each of the following: Antigua, Grenada, Montserrat, St. Christopher Nevis and Anguilla, St. Lucia, St. Vincent, and Turks and Caicos Islands. Greece: Includes the Dodecanese, as ceded by Italy in 1947. India: The 1950 boundaries; the State of Junagadh, and Jammu and Kashmir included, at least for the present. |
