What is the most difficult country to become a citizen in the world?

Austria is the most difficult country to obtain nationality in the world, and it takes as long as 15-30 years to obtain nationality.

Because many EU countries have strict immigration laws, it takes the longest procedure to become an Austrian citizen. If you want to live in Austria for more than 2 years, you must sign an integration agreement aimed at improving your German skills and "integrating into Austrian social, economic and cultural life".

If you want to obtain permanent residency and become an Austrian citizen, you must live in the country continuously for 15 to 30 years before you are eligible to apply, and dual citizenship is not allowed in Austria.

Extended data:

Apart from Austria, it is difficult for Germany to acquire nationality. It takes at least eight years to obtain German citizenship. Unless you are a citizen of other EU member states, it is not easy to obtain permanent residency in Germany. Citizens of other countries must live in Germany for more than five years, and they must have considerable ability in language, political system and society.

In addition, the applicant has to prove that he can make a living in Germany. To be naturalized in Germany, the applicant must have lived in the country for more than 8 years (the ability test can be reduced to 7 years), and dual citizenship is not allowed in Germany.

Tourism has gradually become a part of people's leisure life, and some countries are frequently visited by many tourists because of their unique characteristics. Some short-term tourists may only need passports and visas, but for some tourists who travel to a country for a long time, they need some more advanced documents.

Some tourists even choose to stay there or immigrate directly because of the beautiful local environment and some economic and family factors. Then this involves nationality. Today, Bian Xiao will take stock of the five most difficult nationalities to join in the world. The United States is not on the list, and the first one is too difficult to join!

5. Vatican. Vatican is a religious country. It is the holy city of the Pope and the seat of Roman Catholicism. It has a small territory and a small population. Although there are only a few thousand people, this country is recognized as one of the countries that are difficult to join the nationality. Even local residents do not have their own nationality. If they want to become Vatican citizens, they must be Vatican staff or diplomats.

4. Saudi Arabia Saudi Arabia is a very famous rich country, but due to the protection measures of the local government, it is very difficult to join Saudi nationality. Even if you marry a Saudi citizen, you may not become a local citizen. Besides, the government should also review your religious beliefs, values and living standards. Even if you are all qualified, you can't become Saudi citizens if you are not Muslims. But if you are recommended by an influential person, you can get a permanent residence permit, but that is only a resident status, not a citizen.

3. Qatar Qatar is a rich manufacturing country, rich in oil and gas, and its per capita GDP ranks among the top in the world, but this country is a pure local tyrant, and other industrial manufacturing industries are still relatively backward except money. But this will not affect its status as one of the most difficult countries to join nationality in the world. If you want to join Qatar, your father must be a citizen of Qatar. If you join as a foreigner, you must live in Qatar for more than 25 years and must not leave Qatar for more than two months. Even so, there are only 50 places every year.

2. The conditions for Kuwait to join Kuwait are more stringent. To become a Kuwaiti citizen, citizens of Arab countries need to live for 15 years, and citizens of non-Arab countries need to live for 20 years. During this period, you must be a Muslim for more than 5 years and you must be proficient in Arabic. If you are a woman, before these conditions, you should marry a local man 15 years. This is really difficult to the extreme.

1. China. China is where we live. Although China nationality is not a rare thing for us, in fact, China nationality is recognized as the most difficult thing in the world. Jet Li, a superstar, once became an American citizen. Later, he wanted to return to China and his roots, but the government rejected his application for citizenship. Even though Jet Li was willing to donate10 billion, it was rejected. China nationality requires three conditions. First, you must be a close relative of China people. Second, you are the spouse of a foreigner with permanent residency in China, and your marriage must last for five years, and you must stay in China for five consecutive years, and you must stay for more than nine months every year, and you must have a stable living security and residence; Third, people who have made special, significant and outstanding contributions to China. On the basis of meeting these three conditions, you must have a green card to apply, while China issues less than 250 green cards every year. It can be said that it is more difficult to become a citizen of China than to ascend to heaven.
