...just curious...
I know the UK does support dual citizenship, but for example Germany does not. In order to get a German passport for my children I had to register the birth with the German authorities, apply for a passport for them (so I could truthfully answer the question are they are national of another country....er not yet!) ...then register the birth with the UK and finally apply for a UK passport....
When it came to renewing their German passports, I didn't bother because they had effectively gained German citizenship.
Once they get NZ citizenship, they will be tri nationals (that's like the tri nations only The AB's don't win every game
)....then if they apply for a German passport once again we can truthfully answer the question "Are you a national of another country ....er no ...I'm a national of TWO other countries"
Not sure it'll stand up in court though
