This week we learned that a campaign will kick off on the same date the new rules enter into force - June 27th - providing foreigners with guidance for their applications. The campaign will be launched by the Federal Government Commissioner for Migration, Refugees and Integration and aims to 'inform those interested in naturalisation and those potentially entitled to naturalisation about the requirements and procedures for naturalisation'.
It will contain information on the requirements for German citizenship, the application process and the naturalisation procedure, as well as a digital quick check, which interested parties can use to check whether they basically meet the requirements.
Alongside cutting ordinary residence requirements from eight years to five, a previous ban on dual nationality for non-EU citizens will be lifted, allowing applicants to keep their existing passports after they become German - unless it is not permitted in their origin country.
