2. Human life
 
  2.1 Human life in general  
  Article 64-The residence of a human being  
64.1 Residence of a person  
  The residence of a person is a fixed or mobile shelter of some determinable type designed for that purpose in which the person ordinarily resides from time to time. A person may have one or more residences.
 
64.2 Domicile of a person  
  The domicile of a person is a residence with either some official fixed address, or certified mobile registration which is their principal establishment. A person may have only one domicile in European Union.
 
  If a person has more than one residence, and their domicile remains undetermined, their principal residence is either the place at which they reside the greatest period of time or the residence nominated by a court judgment.
 
  Married or civil union spouses may have separate domiciles without prejudice to the rules respecting their living together.
 
  The domicile of all children under 16 years of age is assumed to be the same as their parent or guardian, unless by court order a separate domicile has been determined.
 
64.3 The right to adequate residence  
  It is a right and a requirement of European Union that all free persons have adequate residential shelter.
 
  Where a person can clearly demonstrate they are unable to afford a residence through their own effort, it shall be a requirement of the government of European Union to assist those persons in finding/developing/building adequate residences.  
64.4 Resident  
  A resident is a person with a known domicile (principal residence) in European Union either as a temporary resident or as a permanent resident.
 
64.6 Change of domicile status  
  Change of domicile is effected by actual residence in another place coupled with the intention of the person to make it the seat of their principal establishment.  
 

The proof of such intention results from the declarations of the person and from the circumstances of the case.

 
  A person is required by this code to notify all government and officials bodies through which they possess official certificates, registrations and licenses of any change in domicile within 30 days of the change. Failure to make such notification shall be considered a civil offence.  
64.7 Vagrant  
  A vagrant is a person with no known current domicile (principle residence) and no fixed residence.  
  As all persons are required to have at least once residence and domicile, and as it is a requirement of the government of European Union to provide such adequate shelter to those unable to afford a residence by their own effort, it is considered a serious offence by this Code to be a vagrant.  
  A person who ignores this article and seeks to reside in locations not designated as proper residential shelter without proper official permit shall be guilty of a criminal offence.  
  Unde this code, civic officials and/or law enforcement officials have the right to forcibly remove persons deemed vagrants and/or any property in their possession who defy this article.
