naturalisation

Naturalisation is the legal process through which a person from another country becomes a citizen of a new country. This typically involves meeting certain requirements, such as residing in the country for a specific period, demonstrating knowledge of the country's language and culture, and passing a citizenship test. Once naturalised, individuals have the same rights and responsibilities as citizens born in that country, including the right to vote and hold public office. Naturalisation helps integrate immigrants into society and fosters a sense of belonging and participation in the community.
