nonforeigner
One who belongs
A nonforeigner is someone who is not a foreigner—a native, citizen, or person who belongs to the place in question.
The term appears mainly in legal, immigration, and policy contexts where distinguishing between foreigners and everyone else matters: Nonforeigners are exempt from the visa requirement.
