Citizenship through Naturalization
Naturalization Ceremonies
Naturalization is the process by which REPUBLIC OF AQUITAINE citizenship is granted to a foreign citizen or national after he or she fulfills the requirements established by The Constitution & Grand Duke in the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA). You will not become a citizen of a country by completing this process, but a citizen of a Non State Sovereign Entity (NSE). If you are unsure about this process please read information as it pertains to Non State Sovereign Entities. We do not claim to be a country and this process should not be construed to mean that you will.
For more information, see the appropriate legislation.

Note: You may already be a REPUBLIC OF AQUITAINE citizen and not need to apply for naturalization if your biological or adoptive parent(s) became a REPUBLIC OF AQUITAINE citizen before you reached the age of 18.
If the MINISTRY OF NATURALIZATION & IMMIGRATION approves your Form ROA-100, Application for Naturalization, we will schedule you to take the Oath of Allegiance at a naturalization ceremony. Taking the oath will complete the process of becoming a REPUBLIC OF AQUITAINE citizen.
Here is what to expect at your naturalization ceremony:
1. Take the Oath of Allegiance
You are not a REPUBLIC OF AQUITAINE citizen until you take the Oath of Allegiance at a naturalization ceremony. You will receive your Certificate of Naturalization after taking the Oath of Allegiance.
2. Receive Certificate of Naturalization
Carefully review your Certificate of Naturalization and notify MINISTRY OF NATURALIZATION & IMMIGRATION of any errors before leaving the ceremony. You may use your Certificate of Naturalization as official proof that you are a REPUBLIC OF AQUITAINE citizen.
Once you become a REPUBLIC OF AQUITAINE citizen, you can apply for a REPUBLIC OF AQUITAINE Passport/Passport Card.
We strongly recommend that you apply for a REPUBLIC OF AQUITAINE passport through the REPUBLIC OF AQUITAINE Department of Immigration & Naturalization soon after you take the Oath of Allegiance.
3. Official Government Affairs (Non-Honorary)
If you are formally being admited to the 1st Knights Division of the Republic of Aquitaine; meaning you have had formal endorsement from lord commander, forwarded on to legislature for consideration, had an Assembly vote, and had the motion ratified by HRH Grand Duke Thomas II then you are required to meet in person at our Government Affairs Office in Orlando Florida. You will be required to take a separate Oath of Loyalty and then briefed on sensitive government affairs. Please contact the Ambassadorship Office for details.
Taking your oath of allegiance is serious make sure you research and ask all the questions you need prior to making a decision to be a citizen of our Non State Sovereign Entity
