Hi,
Please need advice regarding Turkish citizenship. My son 6 months old and he is a British citizen. His father has a dual citizenship - Turkish and British and his mom has only British citizenship. My question: can my son get a dual citizenship like his father?

Dear Konuk;

"TURKISH CITIZENSHIP ACT NUMBERED 5901 AND DATED JUNE 12,2009:

Lineage

ARTICLE 7- (1) A child born to a Turkish citizen father or mother in marriage union, whether in Turkey or abroad, is a Turkish citizen.

(2) A child born to a Turkish citizen mother and an alien father out of marriage union is a Turkish citizen.

(3) A child born to a Turkish citizen father and an alien mother out of marriage union acquires Turkish citizenship in case the principles and procedures providing establishment of lineage are fulfilled."

So if your child born in marriage (formally) he will obtain Turkish citizenship according to paragraph (1).

If your child born out of marriage (if his father and mother were not married when he was born) he may obtain Turkish citizenship according to paragraph (3) above.

Best regards
