My Children were born in China and holding Sri Lankan nationality. I renounced my Sri Lankan nationality and my wife (children's mother) is also not a Sri Lankan.
My children are 17 and 8 years old now. What are the procedures to renounce my Children's nationality as it is very difficult with different nationality within the family members.

Hello, If your children are eligible to obtain whatever the citizenship you have or their mother has and when they apply for it and obtain it, their former citizenship will be automatically renounced. However citizenship and nationality are sometimes two different things and in different countries it can also be interpreted differently.
