We present our recent studies of charged particles motion out of the equatorial plane in strong gravitational and electromagnetic fields. Within the general relativistic approach, we have demonstrated that the interplay between gravitational and electromagnetic action may allow for stable off-equatorial circular motion along the so-called halo orbits near compact objects, such as rotating magnetic compact stars and Kerr black holes immersed in an asymptotically uniform magnetic field of external origin. Locations of halo orbits correspond to minima of the two-dimensional effective potential, which exhibits several qualitativelly different kinds of behaviour, reflecting the charge of moving particles and orientation of the motion. Along with the study of the halo motion itself, we have discussed the general motion in the related off-equatorial potential lobes, demonstrating its chaoticness or regularity in terms of the Poincaré surfaces of sections and recurrence plots. A possible outlook of this study is to build a single test particles model of putative circumpulsar discs consisting of charged dust particles.
