How to Apply For Dual Citizenship in Germany: A Step-by-Step Guide & My Experience

 

This video is about applying for dual citizenship in Germany.

The speaker is excited about the new dual citizenship rule launched on June 27, 2024, which allows immigrants to apply for dual citizenship. Previously, Germany did not allow dual citizenship, but now the speaker, who is Canadian, can apply for German citizenship without giving up their Canadian passport.

The video outlines the requirements for dual citizenship, including living in Germany for a minimum of five years, having a permanent residency card, proving financial stability, and passing a B1 German language test and an immigration test.

The application process can be done online in some cities, but in others, it must be done via email or post. The speaker chose to apply via post and included various documents in their application package, such as their passport, marriage certificate, birth certificate , and proof of employment or self-employment.

After submitting the application, the speaker received confirmation and was asked to provide additional documents. The process can take several weeks, and if all requirements are met, the applicant will be invited to the immigration office to receive their naturalization certificate.

The video also shows an example of a citizenship ceremony that some applicants may be invited to, where they will meet the mayor and receive their certificate.

The speaker concludes by expressing their excitement about getting their dual citizenship and the benefits it will bring, such as the ability to vote and travel to certain countries.
