Wim Van Asch most citizenships can be past on to your child but many countries don't allow dual citizenship, so you couldn't collect them all. If a group of people had the time, money and dedication, they could probably create a child with a hundred nationalities within a generation or two.
@@elliott_jones Alright. Thanks for the clarification. Don't know if there's really an advantage to stack passports to the hilt, but a bit of "diversification" as a safety net in that area could go a long way.
@@wimeatsworld There may and often advantages to having 2-3 citizenships..... However, even if countries do not prohibit additional citizenships, after a certain number the actual maintenance obligations would become somewhat prohibitive. i.e. look at USA requirement of taxes, etc.... some of your numerous nationalties may require certain ongoing administrative filings/etc....plus, if countries have no overseas tax file requirement, may not apply if you own real estate within that country. so, given likely overlap in visa free travel benefits, as well as what special benefits/exemptions you may lose if buying property; think there becomes a critical mass beyond which you collapse under the burden/s.
My country, India doesn't allow dual citizenship. If you acquire citizenship of another nation, then you'll have to give up your Indian passport. You are now an OCI(Overseas citizen of India). You are eligible to get an OCI card. The card states that you have a special relationship with India where you can enter and leave the country whenever you want for your entire life without applying for a visa, you can purchase property in India(except land), your family can acquire an OCI card as well.
"Most people grow up thinking it's not possible (to have two passports/dual nationality" Really?? Do you mean most Americans? That wouldn't be surprising, since only 36% of them have ONE passport! In Europe it's pretty common to have dual nationality.
Hawkeye Pearce Yeah, exactly. Most people I know actually have dual citizenship (myself included). It seems odd to me people not knowing this is even possible.
Probably, I found it surprising and I thought I would’ve had to renounce my US citizenship to be a citizen of the UK. This is pretty cool, but now I found out that taxes exist so yeah idk about that.
My friend was born in the USA to parents of 2 different countries. She married a guy from yet another country and they moved to yet another country and became citizens there. That means she has 4 passports, he has 2, and their kids have 5!
Personally I own 4 (Polish, German, Croatian, And Spanish). I moved to America at age 10 because my father played football but I’m originally from Poland and grew up in Germany and Spain and Croatia. Kids in my school back in the day were so mystified because I was so different to everyone because I spoke multiple languages, I am a quintuplet, I am left handed and from a different country. So kids in my grade would always ask me endless questions about this stuff. But people in America usually only have 1 which is just sad in my opinion.
@@BigCobra191 it's not possible that he has 4 citizenships. When you have the German citizenship you can only hold one other. I have the German and the polish citizenship so I know it. Maybe he can apply for the German citizenship but he not have 4 passports.
I Iive outside the USA and used to have 3 citizenships and passports including the US, but renounced the US citizenship in order to: - avoid the difficulty and expense of reporting and filing with the US every year - avoid the risk of huge penalties for failing to submit the correct form to the IRS - avoid bringing my non-US family under the control of the US authorities - allow me to participate in retirement plans, investments, a small business, and having signing authority in a company, under the rules of my country of residence without the constraints of US extraterritorial rules - give me the freedom to open local bank accounts I was fully compliant with US rules i.e. no tax evasion, but if you are never going to live or work in the US again, it's just not worth the aggravation and cost of keeping a US passport. If you are not going back, then think about biting the bullet and paying the extortionate US$2350 fee to exit.
-avoid bringing my non-US family under the control of the US authorities Waht do you mean? If you are a US Citizen and never file to bring anyone to the US with you why would the US authorities have any control over your family? Especially them being citizens of other countries? The US has no control over people of other countries judt because they have a family member who is a citizen.
@@orenda3696 Uhhh no. If the child is born outside of the US he will be be a citizen of the country he was born in. To get the US Citizenship the parents need to bring the child, his/her born certificate and with their proof of citizenship to a US consulate for the child to get the American citizenship. Example: If an American has a kid in Mexico and he never takes him to the consulate the kid will not magically become an American citizen. Hell they won't ever know he was even born. The US goverment does not go around the globe looking for children from Americans to give them passports. The parents HAVE to do the paperwork to give them the citizenship. Smh...

At 2:08 you say "There are some countries [...] that say 3 [citizenships] is the max.". Which countries limit the number of citizenships their citizens may have to 3?
As far as I'm aware, countries like the UK and Australia don't care how many nationalities you have (so long as these are declared when applying for citizenship there). The only thing they say is that a dual national can't receive consular support when in another country that they are a citizen of or when they are travelling on another passport. E.g. the UK won't help a dual UK/US citizen who gets into trouble in the US or if they are in another country whilst travelling on their US passport. Seems pretty fair enough

As someone currently going through the process in Chile, here were the conditions when I started 3.5 years ago. I came on a tourist visa (good for 90 days) and immediately applied for Temporary Residency. I was required to spend 185 days minimum in the country in order to qualify for the Permanent Residency. If you have all the time in the country by the 9th month, you can initiate the application for the Permanent Residency. Once you have Permanent Residency, you are only required to spend one day per year in Chile or a Chilean embassy. Of course, the more time you spend in the country the better it looks at the time you apply for citizenship. The minimum income that I had to document was $1200/month, which can be done with your retirement income. At the end of 5 years (starting from the time you arrived and applied for the Temporary, you can apply for citizenship. Those were the basic conditions when I started. There have been a lot of people coming into the country from all over the world, though most are from other South American countries. Undoubtedly, the conditions have and are changing for new applications due to the influx. Honestly, I have not paid attention to the changes since I am already in the process. I hope that helps.

and I just heard of someone who has been a resident of the US and travels frequently in and out. They got hassled by immigration saying it was about time this person got US citizenship or could have their residency cancelled. Go figure...
Bali Yoga Travel & Retreats yes this makes perfect sense, and it also depends on how much time said person spends outside of the US. This is why it is recommended to become a USC as soon as possible because you can spend as long as you want and even move to another country. The person could otherwise be found to have abandoned her residency.
No doubt you're right. Most people only have the passport of the European country in which they were born. I would argue, however, and this is based on experience but also probability (thanks to freedom of movement in the EU) that dual nationality is becoming more and more common and will one day be your norm.
I personally would love to get my 2nd citizenship from Hungary.

Hi @Nomad Capitalist, I am a Colombian Citizen by Birth and I am also a Canadian Citizen by Naturalization, and I wanted to ask since I was born in Colombia from my understanding there is a way for Latin American countries to gain Citizenship from Spain through Descent/ Ancestry because we were former colonies but I am not quite sure how the process to apply for Spanish Citizenship actually works.
I do know that luxemburg doesn't allow dual. It may now, but it is normally a sort of bank haven, so to avoid these sort of passeports, and as it is small, to maintain its culture i guess. Of course now hou can just drive around. You just need a european passeport, if they ask
You can apply for the UK passport you just need the UK passport of your dad + birth certificate of you and go to the UK embassy then you have sign some forms.
PassiveCashFlow if you can prove it, you usually can. Dont know how the rules might have changed but at least a few years ago that would certainly apply.
FloridaRealEstate99 ...That has been the policy, yes, citizenship through grandparents. Some countries still offer this-Italy, Ireland, Hungary, Poland....But I would do it sooner rather than later if I were you...Immigration policies are getting tighter in Europe as the migrant crisis continues. Italy is especially inundated...
I meant to say some *European and even EU and Schengen countries still offer this. (That’s the area I research myself; other continents I don’t know so much about.) ...You are verrrry lucky to have that connection...There could be more hoops to go through in the future though...such as learning the language, demonstrating the importance and emphasis of Sicilian/Italian heritage in your American upbringing/household, a history/constitution/culture exam...That’s how it is applying for “citizenship by descent” in certain other European countries...
Did grandma take out any other citizenship before your parent was born? If so, you may not be eligible, depending on how long ago it was. My grandfather naturalized American before my mother was born, so according to the Italian law in effect at the time, he forfeited his Italian citizenship and therefore could not pass it to my mother.
Can I, Daniel Luster have more than one citizenship, like me having a Canadian citizenship as well as my American citizenship (Mansfield, OH, USA). B-)

Actually no, it doesn't work that way. The only country that forces citizens to pay taxes regardless of where they are living is the United States. Other countries consider you a "tax resident" if you spend a certain amount of time in the country every year, oftentimes it's more than 6 months. So for most countries it's actually based on where your earn the money and how much time you spend in the country.
coolls007 nope. My brother was born in Mexico but was later petitioned by my mom he now holds both citizenship’s after becoming a USC and is not required taxes to Mexico.
That would be cumbersome if a person has more than 3 citizenships hahah. Uhmmm wait, deposed Thai PM Thaksin Shinawatra has 6 citizenships. One day, I would like to obtain US, Canadian, and NZ citizenship haha.
I don't get it. Why would I want multi citizenships? My US passport takes me anywhere that I want to go. I have no desire to see North Korea or Eritrea))) Currently I live and work in Vienna. My company does all of my paperwork and I also have an EU residence permit. My friend works for one of the Indonesian oil companies and is married to a local. His son was born in Jakarta and all he had to do was register his son with the US Embassy and within a month, Jason had his own passport. A similar situation with a friend of mine who works in Ukraine. This is also typical of American servicemen. John McCain was born in Panama while his father was posted abroad. My point is why would anyone want an Indonesian, Ukrainian, or Panamanian passport. Barry Goldwater was an interesting case. He was born in the Arizona Territory before it became a state. Just being the Devil's advocate, wouldn't all these citizenships open one up to a multitude of paperwork and taxes?
Gregory Alonzo Because the US is police surveillance state with US$21 trillion in debt for which you’re personally responsible as a share. A second passport gives you a get out of jail card for when Uncle Sam comes to shake you down or arrest you for breaking one of the gazillion laws for which you are surely guilty. A second, and third, passport provide real freedom. You’re a slave shackled to the US with only one passport.
Gregory Alonzo look at what happened to Bobby fischer. He went on the radio in a foreign country and said something the US didn't like. So the US revoked his passport and he was stranded
@@justin02905, I get your point. I do think your example is a bit thin at best. Regardless of whether or not Bobby Fisher had other passports at his disposal, I doubt seriously that he could have traveled anywhere incognito. I also don't think that multiple passports would avail Edward Snowden. Lol!

Gregory Alonzo if you make less than $100k a year and have an employer, the only reasons to get a second passport are insurance in case of war or if the government considers you an enemy

Guess not, Taiwan will require you to renounce every previous citizenship in order to naturalize and you'll need to learn Taiwanese.
What about people with no passports? What are the alternatives to travelling with a passport and what countries allow entry without a passport?
No passport .. no legal travelling
Maybe some countries in Middle East or North Korea you can go there without passport and can’t return back lol
what are the maximum number of citizenships that a canadian can hold? i hold taiwanese former hong kong and might want schengen zone
and I just heard of someone who has been a resident of the US and travels frequently in and out. They got hassled by immigration saying it was about time this person got US citizenship or could have their residency cancelled. Go figure...
Bali Yoga Travel & Retreats yes this makes perfect sense, and it also depends on how much time said person spends outside of the US. This is why it is recommended to become a USC as soon as possible because you can spend as long as you want and even move to another country. The person could otherwise be found to have abandoned her residency.
Hello, can you advise on high interest fixed term savings accounts - best options. I've seen the various lists online.
2: US and Costa Rica. I live in the US
how many languages can you claim fluency in
No doubt you're right. Most people only have the passport of the European country in which they were born. I would argue, however, and this is based on experience but also probability (thanks to freedom of movement in the EU) that dual nationality is becoming more and more common and will one day be your norm.
Gotta collect em all
Like in the birth cirtification we have country above and nationality below.
I have three citizenships and I'm going to get my 4th in 2 years
As a Latino and Marco Rubio u can have 2 or more in the u.s
what about buying all the for sale island country citizenships?
Certainly possible.
Mirian Makeba, had 9 citizenships
i have two citizenship, one birthright and the other from beign born in the country.
I personally would love to get my 2nd citizenship from Hungary. I've heard that if I have heritage dating back to the 1800's and know the language I can get citizenship within a year or possibly less! I need to do more research on this and work on my Hungarian but this would be fantastic! I love the Hungarian people❤
I want to have 11 (Australia, US, Europe, China, Malaysia, Thailand, Japan, HK, Monaco, Singapore, UK)
i think passports ought to expire when you have not worked studied or lived there for a certain amount of time
Boris Becker went straight to being an ambassador of Central African Republic.
And I want to ask you about the country if you parents from two different countries so you have choose one or both? For nationality we can get both.
Hi. I just got my USA citizenship. I was born in Venezuela, my parents are Colombians and my husband is Italian. I wanted to get the Italian and Colombian Citizenships. But The same day of my interview my lawyer told me that USA only allows me to have 2 citizenships. I am a bit confused. Can someone help please!?
Please reach out at this link, and our team would be happy to assist: nomadcapitalist.com/apply/
Hi @Nomad Capitalist, I am a Colombian Citizen by Birth and I am also a Canadian Citizen by Naturalization, and I wanted to ask since I was born in Colombia from my understanding there is a way for Latin American countries to gain Citizenship from Spain through Descent/ Ancestry because we were former colonies but I am not quite sure how the process to apply for Spanish Citizenship actually works.
What’s easiest country that I’ll get minimal grief to visit my kids in the US?
Canada. The two countries allow six months of visa free travel per year between them.
How many taxes are you responsible for ?
Depends on which one you have.. oh, and if you get one from the states gl
Jeff Berwick will answer that ....
I have four passports...AU, NZ, UK, IRL...
That's a pretty useless combination
Hi Andrew, can we meet I am from Bahrain
New goal
Malaysian? 3 passports.. nice..
interesting
Im just thinking would it be a problem? Like if you’re msian enter msia with a foreign passport as they would have a fingerprint record
Hi I have usa and eu citizenship. I'm now applying for uk citizenship. Will this affect my usa citizenship? Thanks
No it won't.
I do know that luxemburg doesn't allow dual. It may now, but it is normally a sort of bank haven, so to avoid these sort of passeports, and as it is small, to maintain its culture i guess. Of course now hou can just drive around. You just need a european passeport, if they ask
2 here ......and in legal different names .....from the 2 countries .....
My father has dual citizenship of Uk and Australia while I just have one Australia 🇦🇺
You can apply for the UK passport you just need the UK passport of your dad + birth certificate of you and go to the UK embassy then you have sign some forms.
I have technically 4 passport because of my mom and dad for 4 different places so can I get 1 more
3 U.S.,german,czech
American here, grandmother was born in Sicily/Italy...can i get Italian citizenship?
PassiveCashFlow if you can prove it, you usually can. Dont know how the rules might have changed but at least a few years ago that would certainly apply.
Yes you can. You'll need birth certificates, and marriage certificates for everyone between her and you.
FloridaRealEstate99 ...That has been the policy, yes, citizenship through grandparents. Some countries still offer this-Italy, Ireland, Hungary, Poland....But I would do it sooner rather than later if I were you...Immigration policies are getting tighter in Europe as the migrant crisis continues. Italy is especially inundated...
I meant to say some *European and even EU and Schengen countries still offer this. (That’s the area I research myself; other continents I don’t know so much about.) ...You are verrrry lucky to have that connection...There could be more hoops to go through in the future though...such as learning the language, demonstrating the importance and emphasis of Sicilian/Italian heritage in your American upbringing/household, a history/constitution/culture exam...That’s how it is applying for “citizenship by descent” in certain other European countries...
Did grandma take out any other citizenship before your parent was born? If so, you may not be eligible, depending on how long ago it was. My grandfather naturalized American before my mother was born, so according to the Italian law in effect at the time, he forfeited his Italian citizenship and therefore could not pass it to my mother.
Can usa citizen can have more that 1 citizenships?
Yes.
What happens when 2 of your citizenships are at war? Would you be considered a traitor?
2:41
5:18
as many as you can afford to pay tax for
Can I, Daniel Luster have more than one citizenship, like me having a Canadian citizenship as well as my American citizenship (Mansfield, OH, USA). B-)
Yes, you can do that, if you are eligible for the other citizenship.
I have dual citizenship
Lucky me!!
I have canadian irish italian bulgarian russian american australian new zelandian japanese turkish iceland norway denmark belgium passport
Hi Nomad Capitalist can you please do a video on how to obtain Israeli citizenship??
I am citizen of 2 countries
I have 7 citizenships : Australia, Brasil, Canada, Spain, South Africa, Taiwan, and Israel
@@boobalooux How ?
@@user-is2li8dm9l Born in Brazil to a Spanish mother, got the Israeli thanks to the law law (my grandparent was Jewish) lived and worked in Australia and Canada, married to a South African and lived the time enough in Taiwan to be able to get the citizenship without have to quit any other of my nationalities... but there is a man with 10 of them he’s a Canadian.
@@boobalooux Super :)
What is the cheapest nationality and passport can be obtained ... even if it is an African country...??
St Lucia and Dominica are currently tied. They cost 100k$ each.
Marry a cape verdean citizen, and you get that citizenship... It would cost you around 6000€
It's Em-ah-raty
You are awesome but the fact is if you're a dual citizenship holder then ur liable too pay taxes in both countries
coolls007 not in UE
Actually no, it doesn't work that way. The only country that forces citizens to pay taxes regardless of where they are living is the United States. Other countries consider you a "tax resident" if you spend a certain amount of time in the country every year, oftentimes it's more than 6 months. So for most countries it's actually based on where your earn the money and how much time you spend in the country.
Americans think the rest of the world sucks, literally, like the US for extraterritorial tax collection.
coolls007 nope. My brother was born in Mexico but was later petitioned by my mom he now holds both citizenship’s after becoming a USC and is not required taxes to Mexico.
? You pay taxes in the country you reside, I believe.
i know a guy who has hundreds of passports.
he's a clerk at the embassy lol
That would be cumbersome if a person has more than 3 citizenships hahah.
Uhmmm wait, deposed Thai PM Thaksin Shinawatra has 6 citizenships.
One day, I would like to obtain US, Canadian, and NZ citizenship haha.
Hi Andrew, a friend would like you to become a citizen in his sovereignty island. Call me.
vaush
Lol I have 3
🇨🇦🇬🇩🇺🇸
I don't get it. Why would I want multi citizenships? My US passport takes me anywhere that I want to go. I have no desire to see North Korea or Eritrea))) Currently I live and work in Vienna. My company does all of my paperwork and I also have an EU residence permit. My friend works for one of the Indonesian oil companies and is married to a local. His son was born in Jakarta and all he had to do was register his son with the US Embassy and within a month, Jason had his own passport. A similar situation with a friend of mine who works in Ukraine. This is also typical of American servicemen. John McCain was born in Panama while his father was posted abroad. My point is why would anyone want an Indonesian, Ukrainian, or Panamanian passport. Barry Goldwater was an interesting case. He was born in the Arizona Territory before it became a state. Just being the Devil's advocate, wouldn't all these citizenships open one up to a multitude of paperwork and taxes?
Gregory Alonzo Because the US is police surveillance state with US$21 trillion in debt for which you’re personally responsible as a share. A second passport gives you a get out of jail card for when Uncle Sam comes to shake you down or arrest you for breaking one of the gazillion laws for which you are surely guilty. A second, and third, passport provide real freedom. You’re a slave shackled to the US with only one passport.
Gregory Alonzo look at what happened to Bobby fischer. He went on the radio in a foreign country and said something the US didn't like. So the US revoked his passport and he was stranded
@@justin02905, I get your point. I do think your example is a bit thin at best. Regardless of whether or not Bobby Fisher had other passports at his disposal, I doubt seriously that he could have traveled anywhere incognito. I also don't think that multiple passports would avail Edward Snowden. Lol!
@@dr.winstonsmith, that is a rather sweeping statement considering that you don't even know me. I served in the Marine Corps and was decorated in combat. I don't break laws and I speak my mind. I am a progressive and I openly criticize the Trump administration. No, I sleep easy at night because I know that no one will kick down my door. However, you have made your fears abundantly clear.
Gregory Alonzo if you make less than $100k a year and have an employer, the only reasons to get a second passport are insurance in case of war or if the government considers you an enemy
I'd like to have the following (just dreaming)
1)Saudi Arabia, for Makkah and Madinah)
2)UAE
3)Kuwait, because its currency is the strongest in the world
4)Oman, same thing second to above
5)Belgium
6)Luxembourg
7)Germany
8)France
9)Canada
10)Australia
11)Russia
12) United Kingdom
13)Ireland
14)Netherlands
15)The United States if they had free health care, non-tax eligibility for overseas citizens, free heathcare (or paid by the tax system), less brutal police, less crime and a completely different school system.
15 passports.
@@abdixsimplix2582
You want to be a citizen of a country that EXECUTES people for being gay, yet you don't want the American citizenship because of police brutality? Do you really think there is less police brutality in Russia?
@@Vallaque They don't shoot civilians for an altercation. There's more genuine and manly violence that heats a person up, they don't send people to graveyards.
The USA iam worry about crime
I have 4 passports haha
Which countries?
I have 7: Brasil, Canada, Spain, South Africa, Taiwan, and Israel
Firsttt
