Number of foreigners with China nationality

Legal analysis: The sixth census shows that there are about 12000 people, but most of them are international friends who joined China at the beginning of liberation and their descendants, and Japanese orphans and their descendants after World War II. In the past 65,438+00 years, less than 300 foreign immigrants were naturalized.

Legal basis: Article 9 of the Nationality Law of the People's Republic of China. China citizens who have settled in foreign countries voluntarily become or acquire foreign nationality will automatically lose their China nationality.
