Dual citizenship is a fantastic opportunity for anyone; for
those who wish to travel, study, or work abroad – there are
endless benefits of being a citizen of more than one
nation.
Italian citizens who have also become
citizens of foreign countries can only lose their
Italian citizenship by formal renunciation. But
with the majority of states permitting (or, even encouraging) dual
citizenship, many people are taking advantage of the benefits of
being a citizen of multiple states.
Multiple citizenship comes with many rights and obligations,
including the right to a passport, free entry into the country,
residency, work permissions, political applications, and voting
rights.
However, depending on in which country you hold citizenship,
there are some exceptions. Some countries, while recognizing
dual citizenship, require that every citizen
observe and exercise certain rights, such as electoral obligations
(compulsory voting).
