dual citizens
Legally doubly national
Dual citizens are people who hold citizenship in two countries simultaneously.
Some nations grant citizenship by birth on their soil, others by parentage, creating situations where a child automatically acquires both: Their daughter is a dual citizen of the U.S. and Ireland.
Dual citizens may vote, work, and travel freely in both countries, though they may also face obligations like military service or taxation in each.
