V citizenship laws

Vietnamese citizenship laws are based on rules that determine who is eligible to be a Vietnamese citizen. They generally grant citizenship to those born in Vietnam, those with Vietnamese parents (by descent), or through naturalization processes. Naturalization can require residency, language proficiency, and an understanding of Vietnamese laws and culture. Vietnam does not recognize dual citizenship easily, so obtaining Vietnamese citizenship may involve renouncing previous status. The laws aim to balance national identity, security, and integration, and they specify procedures, rights, and obligations for Vietnamese citizens.
