Information on the new naturalization law
Stand: 28.05.2024
The long-discussed Naturalization Act comes into force on 27.06.24. The AIB provides information on the planned changes:
The main new feature is that multiple nationality is permitted. The waiting periods will also be reduced from 8 to 6 years and from 5 to 3 years in the case of special integration achievements. Easier language requirements apply for former guest workers. Children of foreign parents can receive a German passport at birth under certain conditions.
In the Quick-Check portal, you can check without obligation whether the requirements for naturalization are met.
