Can a Person Hold Dual Citizenship?

View Post in Vietnamese: >> Một người có thể mang hai quốc tịch?

I have a sister who is married to a husband with Taiwanese nationality. Currently, she has obtained Taiwanese nationality. She has previously submitted an application to renounce her Vietnamese nationality to complete the procedures for obtaining Taiwanese nationality. However, her name is still listed in my family’s household registration book. Therefore, I would like to inquire if, upon obtaining Taiwanese nationality, my sister can hold dual nationality of Taiwan and Vietnam?

According to Article 26 of the Nationality Law of Vietnam 2008 and clause 2 of Article 1 of the Amended Nationality Law of Vietnam 2014, the following circumstances result in the loss of Vietnamese nationality. To be specific:

- Voluntarily renouncing Vietnamese nationality;

- Being deprived of Vietnamese nationality;

- Owing taxes to the State or having property obligations to organizations or individuals in Vietnam;

- Being prosecuted for criminal liability;

- Serving a sentence or following a decision by the Court of Vietnam;

- Being temporarily detained awaiting execution of a sentence;

- Abiding by a decision to apply administrative measures such as being assigned to an educational institution, treatment facility, or reformatory;

- Cases as stipulated in Article 35 of the Nationality Law of Vietnam 2008;

- According to international treaties to which the Socialist Republic of Vietnam is a member.

Hence, when your sister got married to a Taiwanese national and completed the procedures to renounce her Vietnamese nationality, she no longer has to be a Vietnamese citizen, and the responsibility of the household head is to remove her name from the family household registration.

Respectfully!
