How long does it take to get German citizenship by marrying a German?

Legal analysis: As long as you have lived in Desheng for three years and married for at least two years, you can be naturalized. If the residence is interrupted, the residence before the interruption will be counted as 23 years. If a foreigner or his German spouse lives abroad for professional reasons, even if he has lived in Germany for less than three years, he can decide on his own naturalization.

Legal basis: Article 1049 of the Civil Code of People's Republic of China (PRC) requires both men and women to apply for marriage registration in person at the marriage registration office. Those who meet the requirements of this law shall be registered and issued a marriage certificate. The marriage relationship is established when the marriage registration is completed. Those who have not registered for marriage shall re-register.
