Naturalization: 3 tips if you are from Iran!

This article provides three essential tips for Iranians seeking German citizenship:

1 **New naturalization laws**: The recently introduced naturalization law enables a faster Naturalization. People with a C1 language certificate can be naturalized after just three years. Those who only have a B1 certificate can apply for Naturalization after five years. In addition, dual citizenship is now officially recognized, which means that Iranian citizenship can be retained without further ado.

2 **Travel authorizations**: Iranian refugees with residence status according to §25 paragraph 2, alternative 1 of the Residence Act, are allowed to travel to Iran again after Naturalization . This extends their freedom of movement and allows them to visit their country of origin without complications.

3 **Valid national passport**: It is advisable to have a valid Iranian national passport as this simplifies the naturalization process. In the event of problems, such as the Iranian embassy not issuing a passport, there are exceptions which must be checked individually. Special regulations may apply for some women and conscripts.

To summarize: A valid passport makes Naturalization easier, but there are also solutions for special cases. If the situation is complicated, the free test at migrando.de is recommended to get individual support.
