Definición

  • Naturalization is a person's acquisition of the citizenship of a state whose citizenship he or she did not acquire at birth. Most individuals acquire citizenship automatically at birth through some combination of jus soli (citizenship based on place of birth) and jus sanguinis (citizenship based on parentage), the two elements present to varying degrees in every state's citizenship laws.
