About:Dual Nationality

problem to apply my daughter visa to china

My wife arrive to israel and after one month she was pregnant, our daughter born before my wife got from israel her temporal working visa and staying (israel id). When i arrive the embassy the consulate told me i must bring my daughter to embassy, since by the law she is chinese citizen even she not born in CN, and not have id or chinese passport. The law say:
Chinese nationality law states that a person born abroad is a PRC person through jus sanguinis if:

The person is born outside CN with at least one parent who has PRC nation, and the parent (or parents) with CN nation has not yet settled in a foreign country (Article 4)

What is meanning, what should do in that case? He told me about an document for the daughter that need to bring, some kind of transit paper..

I also dont understand how can my daughter have double nationalities and citizens if she born in israel and grow up in israel, now she have 11 month.

Hope you can help me
Regrets Adrian

First of all, PRC don't accept dual nationalities. As for your case, you can have valid proof of your baby's birth in Israel. Then translate them to Chinese. At the CN embassy or consulate, they will issue a travel permit/certificate for you baby. Together with these documents, you also need to present the Hukou of your wife, ID card and your marriage certificate to register Hukou for your baby. In this way, your baby will have CN nation. When entering PRC, only travel permit for ur baby is enough! For more info, you'd consult the embassy further.

Hi, something I not understand, at first you wrote PRC don't accept dual nationalities. But also you wrote: in this way your baby will have CN nation.
True thing I remain very confused, because if she cannot have double nationalities so how she can have CN nation?

About proofe baby born in Israel consulate saw her Israeli passport which saying when she born and where. Consulate told my wife also he will arrange to my daughter visa of turist for two years, does its exzist such kind of visa for two years?

The true thing at final conversation indeed he said he will arrange travel permit for the baby. But we need to sign of an document that describe the information of our daughter (personal details) and then we both need to sign. Unfortunately, I cannot attach files here so I cannot send to you.

The most important a question also is if she will have the CN nation in end of visa process does she will not have any problem to go back to Israel? Or her Israeli citizen will be damage? From this I most worry that the CN immigration will not allow her to return to Israel.

Waiting your forward reply,
Regrets again Adrian

In your case, your daughter’s mom is Chinese and didn’t become Israeli when your daughter was born. So your daughter automatically acquired her Chinese nationality. Yes, dual-citizenship isn’t acknowledged in PRC. So Chinese authorities don’t acknowledge her Israeli nationality. That’s why your daughter could apply for the special travel document called (中华人民共和国旅行证).

If she plans to be a full Chinese, she should also do the household registration at local police station. But it’s really complicated and difficult for children like your daughter.

Adrian, it's difficult to tell. If local police finds out that your daughter have two nationalities, she will be required to make a choice on which nationality she willl keep.
