Danish nationality law is ruled by the Constitutional act of Denmark (of 1953) and the Consolidated Act of Danish Nationality (of 2003, with amendment in 2004). Danish nationality can be acquired in one of the following ways: *Automatically at birth if born in the Danish Realm and at least one of the parents has Danish citizenship. *Automatically at birth if born outside Denmark and the mother has Danish citizenship. *Automatically at birth if born outside Denmark and the father has Danish citizenship and is married to the mother. *Automatically if a person is adopted as a child under 12 years of age *By declaration for nationals of another Nordic country *By naturalisation, that is, by statute *Automatically at birth if either parent is a Danish citizen, regardless of birthplace, if the child was born on or after July 1, 2014.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.justitsministeriet.dk/arbejdsomr%C3%A5der/statsborgerskab/danske-statsborgere/automatisk-erhvervelse-af-dansk-statsborgerskab )〕 Danish nationality can be lost in one of the following ways: *Automatically if a person acquired Danish nationality by birth, but was not born in Denmark and has never lived in Denmark by the age of 22 years (unless this would render the person stateless or the person has lived in another Nordic country for an aggregate period of no less than 7 years) *By court order if a person acquired his or her Danish nationality by fraudulent conduct *By court order if a person is convicted of violation of one or more provisions of Parts 12 and 13 of the Danish Criminal Code (crimes against national security), unless this would render the person stateless *By voluntary application to the Minister for Refugee, Immigration and Integration Affairs (a person who is or who desires to become a national of a foreign country may be released from his or her Danish nationality by such an application) ==Naturalisation as a Danish citizen== * One must have permanent residence status in Denmark in order to become a citizen. * 9 years of continuous residence, with restricted allowance for interrupted residence of up to 1 year or 2 years in special circumstances (education, family illness). Continuous residence is not clearly defined, but one must state periods of absence from Denmark longer than 14 days. * 8 years of continuous residence for people who are stateless or with refugee status * Each year of marriage to a Danish citizen reduces the requirement by one year, to a maximum reduction of 3 years. For example, as little as 6 years of continuous uninterrupted residence for people who have been married to Danish nationals for 3 years. One year of cohabitation before marriage counts as a year of marriage for this purpose. * There is a special and little mentioned clause which allows for absences from Denmark of longer than 1 or 2 years if one is married to a Danish citizen. The total period of continuous residence should be at least 3 years and it must exceed the total periods of absence, AND either: the period of marriage being at least 2 years or the total period of residence in Denmark being 10 years less the period of marriage and 1 year for cohabitation before marriage). One must still have permanent residence. * If one is married to a Dane working 'for Danish interests' in a foreign country, then this period of absence from Denmark can be regarded as residence in Denmark. According to Statistics Denmark, 3,267 foreigners living in Denmark replaced their foreign citizenship with Danish citizenship in 2012. A total of 71.4% of all those who were naturalized in 2012 were from the non-Western world. Half of all new Danish citizenships in 2012 were given to people from Iraq, Afghanistan, Turkey, Somalia and Iran.〔("Personer, der har skiftet til dansk statsborgerskab" (= "People who have changed to Danish citizenship"), Danmarks Statistik (= Statistics Denmark), 2012 )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Danish nationality law」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
