I was planning to travel to Turkey quite frequently in the next few years and thought it would be easier to apply for a Turkish citizinship.

I am already an Australian citizin, but I was born in Turkey, And was wondering if I could apply for a Dual Citizinship.

But some of the laws confuse me, it says my mother and father have to be citizins

Would the fact that I have a Turkish birth certificate make me legible to apply?

I think, if any of your parents are Turkish, you can get a Turkish citizenship..

Consulates seem quite keen not to let anybody who has a Turkish connection, wonder  in bewilderness..

Why dont you call the consulate?

I will be asking them soon, thank you thehandsom.

Seems like this is just the right places for those wondering about Turkish nationality..

If you are Australian and are living in either Sydney, Melbourne or Canberra, you can visit the Turkish consulate (or Embassy in Canberra). The staff there routinely handle questions like this.

 Not to change the subject, but where in the world have you been? !!!!  Have you been hiding with your harem?

 Obviously ´they´ kept him busy for a loooooong time.....

Maybe he has been busy trying to redeem his Turkishness.....seeing how it was confiscated some time ago. 

Anyway, the easiest way to become a Turkish citizen is to marry one....  I don´t remember exactly, but when I married my husband, I had the option to sign something in the marriage office if I wanted to become a citizen.  If memory serves me, there is a waiting period of 3 years before it is final. 

 Well...wherever he was he´s still there!  - that post of his is 5 months´ old

 I am trying to draw him out of hiding.......he left without so much as a goodbye! 

 It´s your own fault, Elisabeth, you should have kept him as your dudu with many more laptops (especially pink ones) and cell phones!

 I agree...let´s blame Elisabeth...she won´t mind, Americans are used to being blamed for everything! 

 Can I even blame her for my internet connection troubles here in the Netherlands? Yippie!

 Yes! Yes!  She´s not here at the moment - wanna blame the bad weather on her too! 

 hahaha...yes, please feel free to blame me for everything, as I am the most powerful force on Earth!  Not only am I am American....I am also married to a Turk and have given birth to a strong Turkish offspring who will grow up and bring peace to the world!  MUAHHHHHHHHH!!!

Strong motivation, Elisabeth! But erm.... if you´re thát powerful can you than please cure my hernia? Or..... was it a little bragging you did?

No, a birth certificate will not help.

It will help however, if you have a friend named Reta who wishes to become a Turkish citizen as well.

No officier in any Turkish Consulate around the world would have the heart to refuse two such pretty ladies, provided you promise tp propagate world peace (following Elisabeth´s  example). All rates will be immediately halved, if you two can lodge in a double application.

BELIEVE IT, OR NOT !

 aman yaaaaaa

where did you get reta from? my pictures?

she doesn´t want to be turkish, shes happy being arab, and I accept that
and are you saying they won´t accept me by myself? how rude
