<p><font size="3">厚着脸皮再去问了以前遇到的那个移民庭法律顾问,这次问的详细了,回答的也详细了。Email 往来的,如有歧义可以作为呈堂证供。。。:)</font></p><p><font size="3">For such event, we wish to reiterate that as long as you have a lawful marriage and being a Singapore citizen at time of your child's birth in Singapore, the citizenship status is automatically recorded on the child's Birth Certificate that the child is a Singapore citizen at time of birth. </font></p><p><font size="3">However, as a minor, your child is allowed to hold dual citizenship until the age of 21 where he/she has to make a decision on which citizenship he/she decides to hold.</font></p><p><font size="3">You may want to note that under Article 128(1) of the Constitution of the Republic of Singapore, anyone who wishes to renounce Singapore citizenship must fulfill the following 3 conditions:</font></p><p><font size="3">i Is or over 21 years of age<br/>ii Of sound mind<br/>iii Is or about to become a citizen of another country</font></p><p><font size="3">In view of the above, we would like to advise that <font color="#ff0000"><strong>the child is not eligible to renounce his/her Singapore citizenship</strong></font> so long as he/she is under 21 years of age. He/She may approach this office on the procedure for renunciation of his/her Singapore citizenship upon attaining 21. <font color="#ff0000"><strong>Neither you nor your spouse can renounce your child's Singapore citizenship on his/her behalf</strong></font>.</font></p><p><font size="3">In addition, under the Enlistment Act, all male Singapore Citizens and Singapore Permanent Residents are liable to register for National Service (NS) upon reaching 16½ years old. The Government may withhold the registration of declaration of renunciation of Singapore citizenship under Article 128(2)(b) of the Constitution of the Republic of Singapore, the provisions which are reproduced below:-</font></p><p><font size="3">If the declaration is made by a person subject to the Enlistment Act unless he has -</font></p><p><font size="3">i discharged his liability for full-time service under section 12 of that Act;<br/>ii rendered at least 3 years of reserve service under section 13 of that Act in lieu of such full-time service; or<br/>iii complied with such conditions as may be determined by the Government.<br/></font></p><p><font size="3">所以这个问题可以做结论了。父母一方是公民,孩子生在新加坡,孩子自动成为新加坡公民,父母无法拒绝。要放弃公民的话,必须等到21岁后由孩子自己去申请放弃,而不能由父母代言。</font></p><p><font size="3"></font></p> |
