Romanian passports for children of present-day Romanian citizens<\/u><\/h4>\n

If you already have a Romanian passport and are wondering how to pass it on to your children, it is important to note that although the procedure is not complicated, it does require some familiarity with the process.<\/p>\n

The process begins with collecting documents such as birth certificates, guardianship documents, and valid Israeli and Romanian passports. These are then submitted to the Romanian embassy in Israel, and you must wait for your application to be approved. Of course, if you cannot or do not wish to deal with submitting the paperwork, you can seek the assistance of a professional to save your time and energy.<\/p>\n

The process of passing one\u2019s existing Romanian citizenship on to one\u2019s children is generally quite simple. However, if someone claims eligibility for a passport based on Romanian ancestors, and those ancestors had their citizenship revoked for any reason, the process becomes more complicated.<\/p>\n

Romanian passports for Israelis<\/u><\/h4>\n

The young state of Israel is an immigrant state made up of many generations of exiles. Israelis\u2019 roots reach back not only to Europe, and Romania in particular, but to all the Arab countries, South America, the United States, and many other communities around the world.<\/p>\n

This fact allows many Israelis to demand their right to citizenships that were held in the past by their ancestors, who in many cases were banished or suffered harassment and assaults and had their citizenship revoked against their will.<\/p>\n

Romanian Jewry<\/a> was subject to great turmoil between the two world wars (for fascinating information on the history of Romania, check out this comprehensive guide to obtaining a Romanian passport<\/a>) and over the years many Romanian refugees made their way to Israel and acquired Israeli citizenship, some hailing from countries that were under Romanian sovereignty in the past. Romanian citizenship law has undergone many changes throughout the recent decades, and nowadays the conditions for eligibility are quite lenient.<\/p>\n

Under Romanian law, to be eligible for Romanian citizenship you must be over 18 years old and your parents or grandparents must have been Romanian-born citizens who had their citizenship revoked. In addition, children of Romanian immigrants who immigrated to Israel between the years 1950 and early 1952, or from mid-1964 until the end of 1965, are eligible for a passport with no generational limit. Up until recently only children and grandchildren of Romanian immigrants were eligible for a passport, but nowadays even great-grandchildren are eligible for Romanian citizenship. Please note that the above holds true regardless of whether the aforementioned ancestor is still alive or has passed away.<\/p>\n
