According to a media report, Federal Interior Minister Nancy Faeser (SPD) wants to ease the conditions for naturalization in Germany.
As the “Bild” newspaper reported on Friday, citing a switching conference between the ministry and the responsible departments of the federal states, children born in Germany to foreign parents, for example, should automatically receive German citizenship if one parent has had “his lawful ordinary parent” for five years Residence” in Germany.
According to the report, the length of time until naturalization is to be reduced from the current eight to five years. In the case of “special integration achievements”, naturalization is possible after just three years, “Bild” quotes participants in the meeting. The obligation to give up one’s previous citizenship is also to be abolished. (AFP)
