Dual or Multiple Citizenship - Q & AQuestion No 3I am a British citizen who was born in Malta in 1940 of parents both born in the United Kingdom - my father was in the British Services and was posted in Malta at that time. I understand that Malta has recently amended its citizenship laws. Do I qualify to hold dual citizenship? When Malta became an independent State on 21 September 1964, a person born in Malta prior to that date could have become a citizen of Malta only if at least one of his parents was born in Malta. As neither of your parents was born in Malta you have no claim to Maltese citizenship and, therefore, you do not qualify to hold dual citizenship.
