Is it possible to have 3 citizenships?

Question

i have an american, libyan, and want a maltese. is it possible to have all 3?

Answer 1

Americans don't like you having more than 1 (they will allow you to get one more though). It may be possible to receive 3 but not all at once.


As you say Walter that it triple citizenship depends on the countries involved. Both Australia and Britian only allow dual. Please don't imply that Britian and Australia allow triple. It is completely wrong and misleading.

Answer 2

yes you may have 3 citizenship,
Malta does allow dual nationalities or more,
either by parents or if you live in Malta , by residing in the country for a least 6 years
Persons who were born abroad between 1964 and 1989 of a Maltese mother and a foreign father can now, for the first time, apply for Maltese citizenship.

The foreign spouse of a citizen of Malta can apply for Maltese citizenship without renouncing the foreign one after having been married to and living with the Maltese spouse for at least five years.

Answer 3

i won't be able to assert something with regard to the U. S. or New Zealand yet although if or no longer the new child is entitled to British citizenship via descent relies upon on the mummy's status. If the mummy grew to become into born interior the united kingdom then sure, the new child acquires citizenship via descent yet while the mummy is a citizen via descent herself & wasn't born interior the united kingdom then no, the new child is unquestionably no longer entitled to British citizenship via descent.

Answer 4

I don't guess I've ever known anyone with 3 citizenships, but I know several persons with dual citizenship. Don't see why you couldn't have more if you meet the qualifications.

Answer 5

It depends upon the national laws of the countries involved and other circumstances.
One way to have 3 citizenships -- British parent or parents, born in America and both parents Jewish. The child would be entitled to American citizenship by birth, British citizenship because one or both parents are British and Israeli citizenship because the child is Jewish.
One could be Australian born of Greek parents who are also Jewish and have three citizenships.
One could be Australian born of British parents who are ethically Chinese and hold three citizenships.

Answer 6

There is nothing in international law prohibiting you from being a citizen of as many countries as you want. As long as it is OK under the laws of each country concerned, you are fine.

Answer 7

Your good!
