Abstract

A person can be a citizen of one country or two countries.

The concept of dual nationality means that a person is a citizen of two countries at the same time. Each country has its own citizenship laws based on its own policy. Persons may have dual nationality by automatic operation of different laws rather than by choice. For example, a child born in a foreign country to US citizen parents may be both a US citizen and a citizen of the country of birth.

  1. Select a country from the Primary Citizenship drop-down list.

  2. Select a country from the Other Citizenship drop-down list (if you have dual citizenship).

  3. Select a country from the Country of Birth drop-down list.

  4. Select the Submit button.
