What nationality is a Chinese child born in Canada?
In recent years, more and more Chinese have gone to Canada to give birth, so what is the nationality of Chinese children born in Canada?How does China define the nationality of these children?How will it affect them?Today, I will explain it in detail to all mothers.
1. The baby automatically becomes a Canadian citizen
Under Canada's citizenship laws, anyone born in Canada automatically acquires Canadian citizenship after birth and enjoys all the benefits of citizenship.
2. China recognizes that the baby is of Chinese nationality.
According to Article 5 of the Nationality Law of the People's Republic of China, if one or both parents are Chinese citizens and have not settled in a foreign country, the child automatically acquires Chinese nationality at birth.
The baby has Chinese and Canadian nationality since birth. Since China does not recognize dual citizenship, when a child turns 18, he must choose whether he wants Chinese or Canadian nationality again. Ask us about the latest policy on giving birth in Canada.
According to the information released by the Consulate General of the People's Republic of China in Toronto, if both or one of the parents were born with Chinese nationality, and the Chinese parents have not obtained a PR card or their foreign residency, the person has Chinese nationality and should go to China to apply for a Chinese travel permit. The Chinese travel permit has the same validity as the passport, and it needs to be renewed once every 2 years, and it needs to be changed at the Chinese consulate abroad according to the rules.
The baby can be registered in China
For babies with a China Travel Document, when they return to China, customs will check the "China Travel Document" upon entry, but many customs will also require them to show their Canadian passport.
Babies born in Canada, since China recognizes their Chinese nationality, only need to be born within the scope of the policy, and those with a birth certificate can go to the household registration. If it is an overborn baby, you need to pay the social care fee before you pay the household registration. These children are subject to the same hukou procedures as Chinese citizens, i.e. they first apply for a birth certificate in China and then go through the formalities at the place where their hukou is located.
The birth paper and ** certification of the baby born in Canada are used for returning to China for household registration, because it is convenient for Meibao to read, but it needs to be translated into Chinese, and the ** of the Chinese side will let you write an application for renunciation of Canadian citizenship, this application has no legal effect in Canada, but it is only shown to China **, so mothers do not have to worry.
Everyone knows what nationality the Chinese child born in Canada is, right?The relevant policies have been introduced, do you still have something you don't understand about the mothers who go to Canada to give birth?After the baby returns to China, you can go to the household registration or not, according to the situation of your own family, in short, the child's dual citizenship at the age of 18 is not conflicted!
