Working with two or more citizenships in such a legal environment can be complicated, let alone in a country like Dubai, where most immigrants are affected by Canada’s immigration laws. If you are thinking of having dual citizenship or even if you have already embarked on the process an immigration lawyer in Dubai will be of great help.

1) Understanding the legal landscape

To begin with, dual citizenship refers to the legal status whereby an individual is a citizen of two countries at the same time. However, the rules and regulations concerning dual citizenship differ from one country to the other and this equally applies to Dubai. Talk with your experienced immigration lawyer in Dubai to get Dual Citizenship Legal Advice.

2) Evaluating eligibility

Another duty of an immigration lawyer is to assess the possibility of a person being a holder of dual citizenship. This includes considering the details of your citizenship status right now, the country of citizenship you are interested in, and if at all you can hold dual citizenship. An attorney can look at your particular circumstances and advise as to the legal nature of being able to be a citizen of both countries to the best of his/ her understanding.

3) Navigating the application process

It is often a long and tedious process to apply for dual citizenship which always includes filing several documents, a police check, and other necessary checks, an interview, and sometimes, a language test among others. Expert Immigration Lawyers Dubai will be able to assist in the preparation of the immigration process, preparing the necessary documents, correcting the forms, and observing the schedules.

4) Handling legal issues

This is a very general view but it must be said that problems connected with legal aspects of dual citizenship can occur at any phase. It may be that there is some issue with your current citizenship status or there are some rules that are binding on you and which you never knew. The kind of attorney who can solve such issues is an immigration lawyer who will come up with probable ways of escaping such situations.

5) Ensuring compliance with local laws

The biggest challenge that comes with holding dual citizenship is the fact that you need to abide by the laws of the two countries. Global Mobility Services Dubai can explain to you your position and the legal implications of being a dual national, this includes taxation, residency status, or even conscription to a country’s armed forces.
