Retention of South African Citizenship services
First, apply for retention
Application for the Retention of RSA citizenship is an application that MUST be made before one acquires foreign nationality. South African citizens who take up foreign citizenship without applying for Retention of South African will lose their SA citizenship.
Minors and retention
Persons under the age of 18 years do not need to apply for Retention of their South African Citizenship, as they will not loose their citizenship whilst still minors.
Failure to apply for retention
A person who has lost citizenship by virtue of failure to apply for the retention of RSA citizenship will have right to permanent residency in South Africa – if he or she was born in RSA. Such a person will be allowed to apply for the resumption or reinstatement of South African in South Africa. An application for resumption or reinstatement of RSA citizenship is approved on condition that such an applicant will live permanently in RSA once his or her application has been approved.
