Naturalisation and citizenship in Congo

Hello everyone,

What are the requirements for acquiring citizenship in Congo? For example, length of residence, language requirements, employment etc..

What formalities are involved in the process?

What is the policy on dual-citizenship in Congo? Do you have to give up your former nationality?

What are the advantages and benefits of acquiring Congolese citizenship, in your opinion?

Thank you for sharing your experience.

Dual citizenship is not accepted in both Congo's. With the unstable political climate in both, and the unrest/conflict in CAR, which could spread into both Congo's, there is no benefit at all to even try acquiring citizenship.
Go in on a work visa, get a work permit and depending on the length of stay, apply for temporary residency.
