Losing Polish Citizenship: Conditions & Renunciation - [Year]

Yes, it is possible to lose Polish citizenship. On the other hand, I am yet to encounter a person who would like to lose his citizenship to his mother land. The thing is, it is easier to get citizenship yet very hard to lose citizenship, especially from the mother country. Your renunciation of Polish citizenship does not attract a fee so you can just go on and do it. The thing is you cannot simply renounce your Polish citizenship, particularly in the current times. However, before, you could have completed it, and it would take effect instantly. Certain categories of individuals were deprived of their Polish citizenship during the past because of one thing or another, but mostly it was political. Since January 1999, there have been guidelines that should be observed when one wishes to lose his citizenship in Poland. You can just renounce your citizenship once you have set a request to the authorities, and you have to acquire permission from the President of Poland. Once you renounce your citizenship, the approval is extended to the children if the children are within your care. When you have no parental authority on them, particularly if it was from a court order, then the renouncement does not affect them. The renouncement of citizenship reaches up to the kids too if one of the parents is not a Polish citizen or if he or she has no parental authority over the kids. When the other parent also consents to the loss of citizenship, the children also lose citizenship. If the second parent is a Polish citizen and objects to the renouncement extending to the children, the parent who requested the consent first is honored the approval. In the instance that the two parents cannot agree on who must remain with the children, they are allowed to deal with it in a court of justice. After their case has been settled, the person who requested for the permission has to go back and present the judgments to the authorities who approve the consent based on the rulings. The permission of renouncement of Polish citizenship applies only to the kids who are less than 16 years of age. Those who are 16 or older have to give their consent for the renouncement of citizenship to apply to them. Even those people who are not citizens however possess lineage Polish can lose citizenship. This means that those whose parents are Polish and possess the supporting files to prove that they are Polish can also request for the consent of renunciation of citizenship. Polish regulation states that you're a Polish if any of your parents, grandparents or great-grandparents were polish. You only need to produce supporting files. Once you decide to lose your citizenship, it is permanent, and you cannot change it. You stay as the citizen of what ever nation you selected. You have seen exactly how easy or hard it is to renounce your citizenship in Poland. Any children you bear right after your renouncement can't take on Polish citizenship except if from the other parent if he is Polish. You can not elect in Poland, and you do not get Polish security if you go abroad. You can't only enter the country and remain there indefinitely. You now understand how to go about losing your citizenship and what happens when you lose it. You now understand that as soon as you lose your citizenship you will lose it permanently.
