President Volodymyr Zelenskyy named the first states with which Ukraine will apply the norms of multiple citizenship.
Zelenskyy stated this at a meeting on Tuesday with representatives of the Ukrainian World Congress.
The first countries to apply the rules of multiple citizenship will be Germany, Poland, the Czech Republic, the USA, and Canada.
"This is a step towards even greater unity of Ukrainians in the world," the president noted.
According to him, the government will adopt the necessary regulations in the near future.
Recall that the law on the introduction of the institution of multiple citizenship in Ukraine was adopted by the Verkhovna Rada on June 18, 2025.
For the functioning of the institution of multiple citizenship, the Cabinet of Ministers will form a list of states whose citizenship Ukrainians can simultaneously acquire, taking into account whether they have applied sanctions against Russia, and whether the country is a member of the European Union.
Thus, renunciation of Ukrainian citizenship is optional for Ukrainians who have acquired citizenship of a country included in the list of states compiled by the Cabinet of Ministers. The basis for losing Ukrainian citizenship is the voluntary acquisition of citizenship of a country that is not included in the list of states compiled by the government.
