 | | Citizenship derives from a legal relationship with a state. | | | Union citizenship continues to gain in status and the European Court of Justice has stated that Union citizenship will be the "fundamental status of nationals of Member States" (see Case C-184/99 Rudy Grzelczyk v Centre Public d'Aide Sociale d'Ottignes-Louvain-la-Neuve, [2001] ECR I-6193, para 31). | | | Citizenship most usually relates to membership of the nation state, but the term can also apply at subnational level. |

| | Dual Citizenship FAQ |
| | Countries usually frame their citizenship laws with little or no regard for the citizenship laws of other countries. | | | If you are in a dual citizenship situation, or are contemplating such a move, you should consider discussing your plans with an attorney who is knowledgeable in this particular aspect of immigration law, and/or with consular officials of the countries involved. | | | Since there can be several ways to acquire a given country's citizenship, it is possible for someone to be considered a citizen under the laws of two (or more) countries at the same time. |
