As the naturalisation authority at the Tübingen district office announced on request, applications for naturalisation with the new simplified residence regulations can only be submitted from 27 June. People who wish to acquire German citizenship should first make an appointment for an informational interview before submitting an application. However, due to the high workload, longer waiting times are to be expected both for the appointment for the information meeting and for processing the application.
The new law now also allows dual citizenship, which means that you no longer have to give up your previous citizenship before naturalisation. This regulation also applies retroactively to people who applied for naturalisation under the old regulations and whose procedure has not yet been completed.
