Although the Government of Guyana has taken steps to facilitate Venezuelans’ access to medical care and education, challenges remain in terms of language barriers, lack of knowledge about services available, lack of required documentation to enroll in school and high transportation costs to reach facilities. In an effort to respond to these challenges, the Government of Guyana has established a Multi-agency Coordinating Committee for addressing the influx of Venezuelan Migrants into Guyana, which is chaired by the Minister of Citizenship and brings together several public institutions, ministries and UN agencies. The Coordinating Committee is seen as a best practice in the region.

Guyana is not a State party to the 1954 Convention relating to the Status of Stateless Persons or the 1961 Convention on the Reduction of Statelessness. The country's nationality law grants citizenship by birth to children born in Guyana, with certain exceptions, and to children born abroad if at least one parent is a Guyanese citizen. However, individuals who lack documentation or whose parents are not recognized as citizens may face challenges in proving their nationality, potentially leading to statelessness. 

Guyana has participated in regional initiatives such as the Caribbean Migration Consultations (CMC), a State-led process aimed at promoting coordinated, rights-based management of migration and forced displacement in the Caribbean. Additionally, the country has engaged in regional training on refugee protection and statelessness, contributing to enhanced dialogue and capacity-building.
