reacquiring Indian citizenship as minor

Post by ric1982 » Mon Nov 09, 2015 12:26 pm

Hi,

Is it possible for a former Indian citizen minor (child) to reacquire Indian citizenship provided one or both parents reacquire Indian citizenship? (a reason would be to move back to India for good)

Thanks

Section 5 of the (Indian) Citizenship Act 1955 seems to suggest so.

Have you checked with the High Commission of India?
