    Should you become a dual citizen? What are the benefits?
    The way we see it at Nomad Capitalist is that it could be a great backup plan, even if you are not planning on moving or working somewhere else because it's always important to have numerous options to choose from.
    Having dual citizenship is a great financial strategy for tax reduction and offshore investments, as well as for taking advantage of social services in, e.g. Europe or Canada.
    Also, holding a second passport may give you more freedom to travel and an opportunity to live in some other place, occasionally or full-time.
    So, start building your global citizenship portfolio and enjoy all the benefits of being a dual citizen.

    I'm a dual citizen (Canadian and Serbian). I find in reality convenient when traveling. 95% of the globe is unlocked for me (Visa free access to most of the countries). I live in Serbia which is not so strict with taxes and Canada considers me as a non tax resident so when it comes to taxes I'm doing really good. And yet when I need something from Canada the Embassy welcomes me with open arms and genuinely helps me with all the paperwork on my new business ventures. In my personal opinion this is maybe even one of the best combinations of citizenships.

    My dad is Canadian and my mom is American, I was born in the US. I got Canadian citizenship handed down to me by my dad and it has helped me in so many ways. College here in the US is insanely expensive so I got my Canadian Passport as well as my US passport. I am going to Canada for college because it is super cheap compared to the US. It has helped me get back and forth to see my family in Canada as well, having 2 passports/citizenships is a very good idea. I haven't exactly used my citizenship for much more than college yet but like you said it is a form of insurance. If anything happens here I can always leave and move back to the US or vice versa.

      Moving from country to country for me is more about learning about the human being. IMo our major differences lie in the education level. I.e. If your parents have PhDs or you start reading when you are very young, you will (normally) understand others better and improve your empathy. Tolerance is a key factor when living a different culture. In my case, I greatly enjoy when I understand the way of seeing life from the locals. At the end, our families are nomads at some point. Remember that it's important to give time to your soul and your family. Blessings.

      In my country that isn't easy to do. As you can you only acquire the citizenship through your parents. If both parents had already naturalized in the US then the kid is no longer eligible for the citizen. Dual citizenship is also only allowed to natural born citizens of my country which means foreigners cannot become dual here. Also foreigners'baby born here do not get the citizenship by birth. They must have at least 1 parent that is a citizen or else they're treated as foreigner or a foundling. There are a lot of American-born kids that cannot get my country's citizenship due to the incompetence of their parents. They're treated as a foreigner.

Then I really need the freedom of movement in the EU that dual citizenship would afford me.

      If you are an American citizen you might as well just sell to as many people in Canada, and obviously the rest of the world as well if possible, and there you would only pay taxes based on your worldwide income to a maximum of 20% which is less than the 40% + state income tax.

    Andrew,
    First, love your channel and the wealth of information you share (Discovered you in late 2018).
    I am a dual citizen in the USA by birth and in El Salvador by decent.
    Currently I’m in the process for my Central American passport.
    My question is something that seldom gets covered and/or clearly explained.
    Perhaps you already have covered this an can point me in the right direction if not...
    How do you properly travel with your two passports?
    Where and how to present to maximize your benefit of dual citizenship (obviously one benefit would be entering as a citizen and not as foreigner)?
    What not to do so you don’t get flagged or draw unnecessary attention to yourself?
    One scenario I like to explore is leaving the US with my US passport out the country.
    Then out of El Salvador or Mexico to Brazil via my Salvadoran passport.
    Logistically I think it’s strait forward. Customs is on my mind and any repercussions that I might incur if done improperly. My guess is that I would use the same steps if I wanted to visit Russia?

    Dual citizen is very advantageous for ease of travel especially if one the passports has very limited visa free opportunities. I am dual Philippine/Canadian. While my Philippine passport is pretty good in Asia and some South American countries like Brazil, my Canadian passport is good among Western countries and Japan. The only negative I see is I have to renew two passports instead of just one. So in essence I need to pay twice but other than that there is no disadvantage of being a dual passport holder (dual citizen)

    This is definitely something that I've pondered over for quite some time. I am a UK Citizen living in France and I have done so for the past 16 years (since I was 11) and up until recently I have never been interested in dual citizenship. Nowadays I have permanent residency status and I am definitely debating on whether or not I should apply for naturalisation but the French bureaucracy and endless hoops to jump through are putting me off big time.

      I'm French :
      - With French citizenship, you can vote in French elections (presidential, parliament with the national assembly and its deputies, referendums), with brexit, being British means that you are no longer a European citizen. France only allows European citizens to vote in European and municipal elections on its soil, but only in these elections, for French national elections, they cannot. If you are not a European citizen, you cannot vote in any election in France. In fact, to sum up, to vote in French elections, you have to be a French citizen, because to vote, you have to show your French identity card or your French passport in the polling station where you are going to vote.
      - With the French passport, you have one of the most powerful passports in the world that allows you to have many countries around the world without a visa.
      - With French citizenship, you will no longer have to renew your residence papers at the prefecture and suffer all the constraints that this entails. You will be fully a French citizen like me, with all the rights and duties that are attached to it.
      And I would like to point out that France recognises dual citizenship, i.e. you will still be British, you will just have an extra passport and an extra nationality. France does not require foreigners who come to France to give up their previous nationality if they wish to become French.

    Hey, Andrew
    I’m Lesotho 🇱🇸 by birth and South African 🇿🇦 by descent. Lesotho 🇱🇸 only started opening up dual citizen in 2020. And I became a dual citizen at the end of 2023.
    It’s still very new to me. I certainly do feel like I know have an identity in Lesotho 🇱🇸. It’s a weird feeling I cannot explain. But it feels good
    In your videos you talk a lot about having an agnostic passport. And that was a major reason for me to pursue my Lesotho 🇱🇸 citizenship.
    There are some countries that I would prefer to visit as a Mosotho and not as a South Africa 🇿🇦
    Because Lesotho 🇱🇸 is so far out of everyone’s way. And nobody has beef with Lesotho 🇱🇸.
    So there definitely are countries where I would prefer to to present my more agnostic identity.

I'm currently living in France, so dual citizenship was obvious for my parents. For now, I don't see any benefits really to have a dual citizenship but I can't "imagine my life without it" as it is part of my identity really.

    I've watched a few of your videos and understand your thinking around US tax laws in particular global tax laws and renouncing US citizenship vs finding tax havens. I'm not yet ready to move to a tax haven but I have an opportunity to move to the US as a PR. I'm an Australian citizen so a US green card only gives me a few extra minor benefits with travel - Phillipines is visa free and a few other minor differences. However, it will give me more work opportunities and ability to live in a tax or low tax state i.e Texas, Nevada etc. Of course there are different taxes re income, property etc and I have to weigh those up with regard to choosing where I'll live. I'm a basic wage/salary earner atm with a growing cryptocurrency portfolio. When I do work in Australia, which isn't often lately I pay extortionate tax, the cost of living is increasing phenomenally, I'm wedged out of the property market. So while the basis of your videos is looking outside and offshore the USA can you see any tax benefits for some Westerners in moving to the US? If you haven't already addressed the topic, I'd be interested in learning about tax havens for crypto investors. Thanks for reading. :)
