Dual nationality

Dual nationality, also known as dual citizenship, occurs when an individual is legally recognized as a citizen of two different countries simultaneously. This means the person holds citizenship in both countries and has the rights and obligations of both.

Key Points:

• Rights: Dual nationals typically have the right to live, work, vote, and receive protection in both countries.
• Obligations: They may also be subject to the laws and responsibilities of both countries, such as paying taxes or serving in the military.
• Limitations: Some countries do not allow dual nationality and may require individuals to renounce one citizenship if they acquire another.

Dual nationality can arise through various circumstances, such as birth in one country to parents from another, naturalization, or marriage.
