Multiple citizenship (3 or more)?
Depending on which country, as far as i know one is only entitled to hold 2 nationalities i.e 2 passports. That doesn't mean that you can have other registrations (like work permit or registration of other countries), but official citizenship is limited to 2.
Guess she's lying, he what's new!!! She can hold an german and canadian passport and an dominican registration, that is possible.
I could not find any law in DR that specifically prohibits more than 2 nationalities. These new renewal procedures for residents got me thinking for the first time about becoming a DR citizen, but I don't feel like resigning any of my other two passports. I guess I'll have to ask a migration lawyer about it, then. I just thought I would ask here first, to see if anyone was in the same situation.
Depending of what you're other nationalities are , but for example i would never NEVER give up like an US/european passport for an dominican, just saying tough. I'd rather go to the little bit of struggle with the new laws.
I believe multiple passports are permitted..... as for the US, it is illegal to enter the US on any passport other than your US one.
i.e. if you have US citizenship, you must use it to enter.
Others have posted here that Germany won't allow mutiple passports.... dunno

If you look at the naturalization requirements, point 14 states:
14. En caso de haber obtenido otra nacionalidad distinta a la de origen anexar un historial sumario de
la misma.
So in other words if you have a second nationality you need to explain why. Sounds to me like it is allowed.

Hi Matilda like i already mentioned 2 passports is permitted, but the OP's question was how about three nationalities (i answered this too if u read the posts). Anyway thanks for your reply based on the law/facts.
This was taken from the list of requirements for citizenship. The fact that it says if you have an another nationality other than that you were born with, please explain why, leads me to think that it would not prevent you from having Dominican citizenship as well. In other words you could have three.

I'd love to know the answer to this too.
I'm a US Citizen, and recently collected all the documents I need for Italian citizenship. Just as I was ready to file for that, all this new nonsense with DR permanent residency started, and it looks like I'm better off going straight for DR citizenship [married to a Dominican man for decades].
I've held up doing anything because our son really wants me to get the Italian citizenship so he can get it through me (otherwise he's not eligible), but he was also thinking of claiming his DR citizenship through my husband/his father, so we're both in the same boat - wondering if triple citizenship is allowed.

He can't have 3 passports, so maybe he has some kind of registration or permit for one of those countries, but he can't have 3 passports. Just call any embasyy or Consulate and they will tell you the same. You may only have a dubbel nationality and other permits with other countries, I hold 2 passport and 2 registrations in different countries, now that's possible. Please people dont come on this thread and tell like i know MR X how says he got 3 passport or Ms Y that carries 4 passports. Please keep it FACT based Please so we don't confuse readers!
If you country allow dual citizenship, you can have 3 passports. I used to have 3 (1 expired).
My children have 3 passports. Let's say we go to France, we use the French one to enter France and US one to come back. The third one is to go to my parents country in Africa without needing a visa (other than that useless lol), so in reality I only use 2 (French and US).

I guess some people just apply for their new citizenship without the third country actually knowing they have two already. I can see this happening in DR very easily as I don't think they will check this country by country. However, I wouldn't want to do this and then get in trouble later on. I know there must be some people with three or more passports, but I don't know if it is legal. According to DRsantos it is not legal.
All Google searches appear to disagree with you DRsantos. As long as the individual countries have no rules against dual or multiple citizenship you can have as many as you want.

Maybe a new situation for children or different rule, i'm not certain, it's new to me aswell. Is there any chances that the other passport is like from a country like Congo, Lyberia or Zimbabwe. Maybe they apllied the rule later or never did, i'm not offending or something but this just happens. I just know this because i tries to get an 3rd nationality aswell i had to give 1 up before obtaining. So i never applied further!
