The Verkhovna Rada supported a bill that allows multiple citizenship in Ukraine. 243 MPs voted in favor.

About it reports Telegram -Channel of the People’s Deputy Yaroslav Zheleznyak.

During the vote, the bill on the introduction of the Institute of Multiple Citizenship in Ukraine was supported by 243 people’s deputies, and 19 voted against. In particular, nine people’s deputies abstained from voting.

People’s Deputy told in which cases it is permissible:

  • In the case of acquisition of a child by birth of Ukrainian citizenship and citizenship of another state.
  • In case of acquisition by a child who is a citizen of Ukraine, the citizenship of his adoptive parents.
  • In case of automatic acquisition by a citizen of Ukraine, other citizenship as a result of marriage with a foreigner.
  • In the case of automatic acquisition by a citizen of Ukraine who has reached the age of majority, other citizenship as a result of the application of the legislation on citizenship of a foreign state, if such a citizen of Ukraine did not receive a document confirming the presence of another state’s citizenship.
  • In the case of Ukraine’s citizenship in a simplified manner, for foreigners who are citizens of states who are included in the list of those who can obtain citizenship in a simplified manner.
  • In case of acquisition of citizenship of states by citizen of Ukraine, the list of those whose citizens acquire the citizenship of Ukraine in a simplified manner.
  • We will remind, on August 7 last year President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky made a bill on multiple citizenship in the Verkhovna Rada. In addition to consolidating the permissible cases of multiplicity of citizenship, the project of the law also determines the grounds for the loss of Ukrainian citizenship. Among other things, it is the voluntary acquisition of citizenship of the aggressor state.

    This was preceded by the President’s promise to initiate a bill on the introduction of multiple citizenship in Ukraine, which would allow citizenship to all ethnic Ukrainians and their descendants from all over the world (except for the Russian Federation).

    In December, the Verkhovna Rada supported the law on the introduction of the Institute of Multiple Citizenship in Ukraine as a basis.
