Father is a 3rd generation Korean,who was born here. The baby will have right of blood to American and Croatian Citizenship,but think she will ave to renounce one at 18 ( cannot have a EU and American Passport).
Don't you have to put on the family registery? |
You can have dual EU and American citizenship, if it's due to parentage. the US accepts it. If Croatia does, then you shoudl be ok, and many EU countries that don't allow dual cit, DO allow it due to parentage.
So for example, if you're american and your husband has a Croatian passport, then your children can get both. Check with the embassies. |

No, both parents' have American passports'. Croatia allows dual, as dicated by thier constuition. However, Iam not sure how it would be obtainted outside of birth; how renoucing one or the other would work later on or how America feels abou this.
Iam also of Slavic Orthodox descent but cannot get this dual or full Croatian Cizenship because half of my ancsestral line is Serbian ( not considered a serpate enity state from the old Yougoslavin Empire).
The father is American by birth,but will probably wanna keep his Asian ancestral line, so this also creates' MANY potenial problems down the road shall we decide upon his religon and his culture..
Anyways' I don't think we're both as American as we'de like to believe; as this as just become such a continuing issue. |

Lots of countries allow dual. I'm a dual citizen. I went to the embassy BEFORE getting my other citizenship and asked them to notarise a paper saying that I wasn't giving up US citizenship. They said it wasn't necessary, but they said it anyways.
GOOd luck with getting Croatian citizenship, my mother is Romanian and I've been trying to get RO citizenship since 1999.
Rather than potential problems, think about potential opportunities.
American honestly doesn't care AS LONG AS YOU, ALWAYS enter and leave US soil with your US passport. Don't join terrorist forces for the country. If that makes sense. I mean, you can join another country's army, just make sure it's not fighting against the US.
And as far as I know, the majority of European countries require you to live there for X amount of time. France and Italy are the exception, but those are due to marriage and knowing the language. |

Hi Nathan,
I am the wife, and I am not of Korean decent. My husband's parents are both from Korea, and his father and the remainder of his family still live here, but my husband is an American citizen. |
I believe your child will be eligible for F4 status later on if he or she choses. Your child would be able to get it because of your husband's parents. (The grandparents.) |

I think you're right, though my husband was not able to get an F4 in time to come to Korea (he's not on the registry), so he's on an E2. His father wants to put our baby on the registry, but if he's a boy we're going to ask that he doesn't, due to the military service clause the embassy is forever warning us about. |
