Citizenship Eligibility

Citizenship eligibility refers to the criteria that individuals must meet to become citizens of a country. Generally, these criteria include being born in the country (jus soli), having citizen parents (jus sanguinis), or fulfilling residency requirements, such as living in the country for a certain number of years and demonstrating good character. Applicants may also need to pass a language and civics test, and show that they can support themselves financially. Each country has its own specific rules and processes for granting citizenship.
