Germany Does not permit Dual citizenship. I moved from Germany as a child. Every time I apply for a passport, I need to prove that I have not applied for another citizenship. If you're moving back to germany, your best bet would be to attempt to regain German Citizenship when there. You may even be able to swing dual citizenship from there, as they may not search foreign citizenships if you reside there.

I've been told that there is a clause in the German Constitution that states, "once a German, always a German" on this premise, you may be able to re-gain German Citizenship.

Remember that as a German Citizen, you would be considered a Citizen or the European Union, and from what I've been told, you'd be legally entitled to work in any EU state.

Good luck

How long have you lived in the U.S.? Were you ever a CITIZEN of Germany? I'm asking because if you were born on a U.S. military base in Germany, or if you're an American citizen now...you fill out paperwork at the post office. If any of the above is true, you need an American passport TO Europe...not a German passport. They have kits for passports at the post office. In it, you'll find a questionnairre and paperwork for a passport photo. Fill it out, get your personal papers together (drivers license, birth certificate, and whatever else they ask for)...then got to your local Kinko's (or most other copy/printer store, or possibly Bureau of Motor Vehicles) and have a passport picture taken. Then mail the whole thing back to the address on your passport kit, and they'll send you a new passport.

specific you could prepare for the two passports and then carry the two one among them on an analogous time. My kin is British yet i replace into born interior usa of america. because of the fact i replace into born interior the states that makes me an American citizen even in spite of the undeniable fact that i've got no kin members from there. I carry the two an American and a British passport. I actual have duel passports - British and American

Go to the German embassy nearest to you. They will probably need some proof, like a birth certificate, that you were actually born there.

my cousin was a German citizen until she was 23(she was born there), then she comes over here, applies for her US citizenship, gets it, then Germany revokes her German citizenship, and still cant get it re-enstate because shes a US citizen.

so, have fun with that and best of luck.
