Yes they do.  It happens when you have children of mixed nationality or when you have children born in foreign nations to parents that are US citizens.\n\nExamples: Children of illegals that are born here in the US have citizenship in both the US and mexico.\n\nA friend of mine's parents were vacationing in Japan and had him unexpectedly.  He is both a Japanese and an American citizen.\n\nA foreign woman comes to the US and gets pregnatb an American man then goes back to her own country and has the baby.  The baby is both her nationality and an American.

I don't know about Britain, but Canada doesn't force you to give up your existing citizenship in order to become a Canadian citizen. I don't think Britain does either, so you can probably have double citizenship.

Technically you cannot have dual citizenship, to become a citizen of the US or UK you must give up any rights to your former country as part of your citizenship, however I am led to believe there are ways and means, of which I have not found yet.

If they are married the child will be a US Citizen. Many countries will allow a child to have dual citizenship, but he/she will have to choose a country at 18.\n\nMy dad is American and my mom is a British citizen, but is a legal alien, and we are all US citizens. We had the option of dual citizenship, but didn't see the point to it. I always knew I wanted to live my life here in America. You will have to check the specifics for Germany, but I'm sure they're probably the same.

An American is an American.  We all have the same rights.  And if akk American is more of that hyphenated-American immigration crap, get over it.  Once you "LEGALLY' live here, you are an AMERICAN, PERIOD.  The name of your previous country is null and void.  It is now your ethnic background, not your nationality! you left there remember??.  If you prefer to be called and akk or what ever, move back to akk or where ever you came from.  You came here for a reason...to become an American.

What Cyanne said above me is NOT true (sorry).  The United States recognises dual citizenship, but when you are in the United States and have U.S. citizenship, you are fully liable for the consequences and benefits that come with the citizenship and the second citizenship is not taken into effect (i.e. paying American taxes even if you work abroad in that country where you have citizenship).  It is even mentioned on the Department of State (state.gov) as a travel warning that if you have dual citizenship you are liable for all legal consequences in the nation before extradition to the States can take place.  I also know this because I am a dual citizen to the U.S. and to the Republic of Moldova, and have been for 10 years.\nYou can contact the Russian Federation's embassy, in either Washington D.C. or New York City, whichever is closest, and they can send you an application that will have to be filled out by both your parents and yourself.  The only way that they wouldn't grant you citizenship is if RUSSIA has laws against obtaining dual citizenship - the U.S. has no problem with it as long as you understand the rules that come with it.  Contact the Russian embassy, they can tell you all about it.  I believe there are also application fees that apply, check out the website at:http://www.russianembassy.org/.  That's for the D.C. embassy.\nGood luck.

If one of your parents is from the US and the other from Mexico you can have dual citizenship, you have to apply for it though. My husband is a Mexican citizen and a US resident, they will allow him to apply for citizenship in 2 years, if he chooses to then he will have dual citizenship. But you must understand that Mexico will still treat him as a Mexican citizen, and there are disadvantages to that, for Example I (as a US citizen) can take $10,000.00 into Mexico, he can only take less that $500.00!

Countries don't "participate" in dual citizenships. Countries allows its citizens to hold two different passports. Say you are from country X, and you go to country Y. Country X allows dual citizenship while country Y doesn't. You, who is an country X citizen, will be able to hold both X and Y citizenship b/c your country of origin allows for dual citizenships, even if the new country doesn't allow duals, or recognise country X.\n\nGovernment of India decided to grant Overseas Citizenship of India (OCI) which most people mistakenly refer as 'dual citizenship'.

Dual citizenship is allowed with Ireland, too. Dual citizenship is not just given, it must be attained.\n\nThe US has cut off all aid to Palestinians because they US has a double standard. They want democratically elected leaders, as long as they are leaders we like. \n\nThe US gives 1/3 of our foreign aid budget to Israel, the 6th richest country in the world. We supply them with they military hardware they use to oppress and kill Palestinians. We support them even though they refuse to abide by international treaties and UN resolutions.

It's quite possible. You can be a citizen of more than one country. Dual citizenship. I'm a Canadian citizen, but I have a British passport because it's good for all of Europe.

The US does not allow dual citizenship of its own citizens.  By that, if you were to become a British citizen, you'd forfeit your US citizenship.  However, depending on England's laws, if your boyfriend becomes a US citizen, he may have dual citizenship status if this doesn't forfeit his British citizenship.\n\nAs for marriage, if it is recognized as legal in another country, then it is recognized as legal in the US.  The only exception would be the case of a same-sex marriage, as the US doesn't currently recognize such marriages.\n\nIf you are interested in marrying your boyfriend and bringing him into the US, it would be better if he applied to come here under a fiance visa.  He would then have 90 days to marry you before that visa expired.  I don't know how long it would take for him to come into the US if you were to marry him in England, it could take longer than a fiance visa route.

Dual citizenship is literally maintaining citizenship in 2 different countries. You can not do that in the United States past the age of 18 for ANY reason. If you are caught, you are forced to choose.
