Being able to move freely is one of the advantages of having dual citizenship. Just imagine being able to travel from one country to another, without a visa. Different countries have their own criteria for granting citizenship, some require making an investment, some require that you be exceptional at at certain sport or area of specialization, where as some require you marry their citizen. The length of time varies between countries. In this article i will be looking at ways to become a citizen of any country
Here are a list of ways you can become a citizen of any country
Make an investment
Most countries require that you invest before you can be granted citizenship, few examples include Macedonia, Russia, Dominican republic e.t.c. Investing money into the economy of a country is a way of speeding up the naturalization process. Some countries require up to $100,000, the naturalization process can take up to 1 - 2 years.
Receive special treatment
This usually applies to people with exception abilities, it could academic, athletic and so on. If you have talent in a matter sports, a foreign country can grant you citizenship for you to represent them. People can also be granted citizenship due to political reasons. This mostly applies to political activists who fight for a good cause, a foreign country can grant them citizenship as a form of protection to them.
Marry a foreign national
This method has been used by a lot of people, as the quickest way to get a foreign citizenship. Foreign spouses often qualify for a shortened waiting period, but a few countries still offer instant citizenship.
Citizenship by descent
This is possible if you can prove that you have ancestors from the country that you are seeking citizenship. the process usually takes between 6 months to 1 year, depending on the bureaucracy of the country.
