In connection with the definition of citizenship, some questions may arise. And when filling out documents in the column “citizenship” what to write is not always clear. After all, a person sometimes does not have it at all. There are several examples of such difficulties.
What to write in the line "citizenship" to a two-year-old child?
Citizenship is given to a person from birth. If a person was born in Russia, Uzbekistan and elsewhere - he automatically becomes a citizen of the country in which he was born. And from now on, he will be able to change this and become a citizen of another country only at his own request by submitting relevant documents to certain authorities. So, in case of a question: "In the column" citizenship "what to write to a small child?" - Know that he is a citizen of the country in which he was born. Her and write in the appropriate line.
Is dual citizenship possible?
Yes. If, for example, you are a citizen of the Republic of Belarus, but you also want to obtain Russian citizenship, then this is quite feasible. In the column "citizenship" what to write in this case when filling out the documents, it is better to find out from the responsible persons. But how to fill out the documents upon receipt of a passport?
The column "citizenship": what to write when receiving OZP?
OZP is a national passport. When applying for it, as people who have gone through this procedure report, you can indicate, if this is the case with you, that you have more than one citizenship (column six). When filling out such an application in electronic form, some problems may arise, because of which it simply will not be sent. In this case, leave the columns blank and fill them in by hand in a printed form.
In the case of obtaining a second citizenship, judging by the discussions on the forums, there is a fear of losing the existing one (many states have similar rules - just check the local legislation). So, if there is still a fear of loss, then to calm down, they say at the Russian embassy that they will not inform the authorities about your another citizenship. And indeed, on legal grounds of citizenship you can be deprived only in some cases. For example, at your own request or in the event that you enlisted in the police, military service or in security agencies, etc. to another state. The president of the country himself can also deprive you of citizenship, but in the event that it becomes known that when you received your initial citizenship, you provided deliberately false information and information about you, or you submitted false documents. If we take the child as an example, then he can lose his citizenship with the consent and at the request of the parents or single parent, and at the age of fourteen to eighteen years the child can be deprived of citizenship only with his consent. As for the remaining conditions, there are still a number of documents that could affect the deprivation of citizenship. So again, you need to carefully read the legislation of each country of interest to you.
