Registration to Retain Citizenship No Longer Needed for Adopted Children

On July 10th the Department of State posted this notice: On June 24, 2014, the National Assembly of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam approved a Law on Amendments and Supplements to the Citizenship Law of Vietnam. This law abolishes the requirement for Vietnamese citizen children adopted from Vietnam before July 1, 2009 to register in order to retain Vietnamese nationality, as posted in our October 2013 announcement.

This is a change to the notice that was posted in October 2013. Please read the entire notice here.
