Poles are the largest ethnic group in Norway among foreigners. Many of us have lived in Norway for many years and we would certainly like to obtain Norwegian citizenship. Being a Norwegian citizen would make several things easier, such as being able to travel to certain countries without having to apply for a visa.
Differences after receiving dual citizenship
Now Norwegia does not allow its citizens to retain their Norwegian citizenship after moving to another country and obtaining citizenship there. These regulations are being considered by norweski Government and are to be changed.
What makes us happy is this change regarding us, i.e. foreigners living in Norway. The act is also intended to benefit us because we will be able to apply for... Norwegian citizenship without having to renounce your current citizenship.
According to the Minister of Immigration and Integration Sylvi Listhaug
Dual citizenship is a precondition for depriving citizens of Norwegian citizenship in connection with terrorist or similar acts. This is one of the reasons why the Department of Justice and Emergency Planning is now proposing openly dual citizenship, says Minister of Immigration and Integration, Sylvi Listhau.
Until now, the right to exist could not be taken away a Norwegian citizen people from the criminal circle because, according to the law, these people no longer had their previous, native citizenship. After the changes introduced, these people will be able to retain their previous citizenship and, therefore, after committing a criminal act, they will be deprived of Norwegian citizenship and, consequently, of their rights rights of full-fledged persons Norwegian citizens.
Possibility of regaining lost citizenship
Change in the Act on dual citizenship also applies to Norwegian citizens who have already lost their citizenship. They will they could receive again Norwegian citizenship.
