PEWEX in one thread,

No, the Pewex is hitory now of course but I remember how we used to use them. I do not know if it was a good idea or not. I think today, I would shun those sort of places as I am against it through principle but these Pewex or whatever they were existed throughout Eastern Europe. They were known as Bieriozka in Russia and we had them in the ukraine too, known as 'Kasztan'. I remember when I was in Kharkow I even used on to buy some dreadful Russian wine and took it back to England. My father never said a word and I never bought any more!

Are you Ukranian then ?

I don't understand anyone not wanting to admit their nationality.

Strange.

Nope. Quite a few posters asked you about your nationality, or your native language, but you never gave an answer. Even the above quote says 'origins', and not I'm British, Polish, German, Ukrainian...whatever, your answers are evasive.
So, why are you ashamed of your nationality? (I know you will not answer this question)

ying to reason with a man who marries a Polish woman then constantly slags of Poles

I did not slag off the Poles. My son had a Polish passport, though it is out of date now. What do you want one for anyway? If you live overseas, it is very expensive. I think we paid £46 and that is thirteen years ago. If you want to buy property or land it may help too. I am not sure if foreigners can buy land now-they could not until very recently. The last time I was in Czestochowa you had to have Polish citizenship, a passport or a pobyt na stale for a minimum of two years in order to apply to buy.

- It appears to me that this creature is of Polish extraction. Perhaps he was born in Poland and lived long enough there. Just a hate-filled Polonophobe of Polish origin. And a self-indulgent liar who thinks that we are not intelligent enough to see that, or that even if we see that, his repeated assurances that he's not Polish will make us eventually believe him.

By the way, there are also Britophobes of British origin.

It's a universal phenomenon - the hate towards the country of one's origin.

But sometimes there may come the point when, for the sake of self-interest, such people start suddenly appreciating the country of their origin and become 'great' patriots.

They should never be taken back.

I keep hearing that Poland does not allow dual citizenship. I assume that means that if you already have another citizenship, you have to give it up if you want to become Polish (I don't think it's true the other way around - you don't loose your Polish citizenship when you get your US one, for example). What, exactly, does Poland require as giving up the other citizenship? Handing in the passport, or official request to be stripped off the other citizenship?

No, it means that when you're in Poland you're treated by the authorities as any other Pole. So if you get into trouble in Poland, you can't rely on the US/UK etc embassy for any help as Poland won't recognise you as anything else except as a Polish citizen. This is true for most countries I think...

All countries treat dual citizens this way. That's why you legally can't enter Poland on a US passport if you also have Polish citizenship.

Some countries don't allow dual citizenship at all, that is, if you carry a passport of another country, you can't remain a citizen of the original country. The USA for instance requires that you give up your US citizenship if you are naturalized in another country. If you are born with the foreign citizenship, then you are a dual national by birth and you may keep both passports.

I have heard that if you make it known that you do not want give up the US citizenship, they'll let you keep it. Especially if the second country is a small, peace loving island. ;)

Nothing you said is true. I know because I hold 3 citizenships, USA, PL, and DE.

Poland and the USA allow dual or multiple citizenships, and I was naturalized as a Polish citizen after being a US citizen, and later recieved my german citizenship. I hold all 3 citizenships and never had any problems.

And you CAN enter Poland on a US passport even if you hold a polish passport, but why would you, since your American passport would get stamped with a schengen visa limited to what, 90 days? So convex, why would you spout ******** like this?

It depends on what grounds you're applying and what your connection is to PL.

Some more information would help people to answer you.

Polish Citizenship Act of 15 February 1962 which states under Chapter 1 Article 2 "A Polish Citicen under Polish Law cannot be simutaneously considered a national of another country".

So, with that law wouldn't it be impossible for a Polish person to have dual citizenship or two passports?

In practice, Poland just doesn't recognise the other citizenship rather than actually punishing anyone. Most countries in the world operate the same way, really.

In Poland you can have dual nationality, even tripple (I know one guy who has tripple), nobody cares about it. I've never heard that Poland had a rule of only one nationality, maybe over 30 years ago, but it was long before I was born. Now in whole Europe people are free to choose.
