Does Australia still have Australian citizenship when a newborn is born?

Every country has different regulations on the nationality of the children born, some according to the time of residence and some according to the place of birth. The nationality of children born in Australia depends on whether their parents are citizens or residents.

First, if either parent has green card status, the child must be born in Australia, that is, Australian nationality. In other words, one of the child's parents, father or mother, holds an Australian green card, and her child was born in Australia and directly obtained Australian citizenship. If either parent holds an Australian green card and her child happens to be out of Australia at the time of birth, then the child will not be granted Australian citizenship.

Second, if either parent is an Australian citizen, the child is an Australian citizen no matter where he was born. The nationality of the child born mainly depends on the identity of the parents, and then the birthplace of the child. Citizenship is not limited to the place of birth, while resident status is limited to Australia. If you want your child to have Australian citizenship at birth, you need to pay attention to these two points.
