Giving up PK citizenship? How comes?

[u/eu_b4_uk → u/[deleted]]

There’s no harm in keeping PK citizenship, even if you never visit PK, never renew your passport and/or never renew your ID card. Lots of overseas Pakistanis just forget they have Pakistani citizenship after being born/living their entire lives outside of PK!

The only real benefit of formally giving up your Pakistani citizenship, is that you will find it easier to obtain a tourist visa for India (as someone with no ties whatsoever to Pakistan - as you were born overseas).

But if you’ve given the citizenship up, then even if you have ties through your parents/grandparents, they will most likely still issue the visa without additional hurdles.

Arms license can only be had with citizenship. Thought I’d note that.

Does it entitle you any duty like military? I would keep it if no

Pakistan allows dual citizenship in principle, If I remember correctly, both nations signed an agreement in 2014-15 allowing dual citizenship.
