Romanian Government Succeeds in Making Dual Citizenship Possible for Romanians in Spain

Romanian Government Succeeds in Making Dual Citizenship Possible for Romanians in Spain

Due to the Romanian Government’s lobby, Romanians living in Spain will soon have dual citizenship. The Spanish Prime Minister, Pedro Sanchez, will arrive in Romania at the end of January to sign the agreement between the two governments. The two parties have already agreed on the document’s final version.

This success started in 2022 when a joint meeting of the Spanish and Romanian Governments was organized in Spain. At that moment, the Romanian part asked for the Romanians living in Spain to be allowed to have dual citizenship. After that meeting, dual commissions have been established to work on the agenda to fulfil what is now possible.

According to the existing law, the Romanians in Spain who want to get Spanish citizenship must give up their Romanian citizenship. After the two governments sign the agreement, they will get a second citizenship without giving up the Romanian one. Also, they will get jobs, such as in the Spanish Army, administration or police.

So far, this privilege of dual citizenship has been offered only to French and Portuguese nationals, and Romania has become the third country Spain offers this.

More than 1 million Romanians live in Spain, while around 600,000 have residency. Romanians form one of the largest communities of foreigners in Spain.
