I was born in Denmark and moved out when I was young. I still sign Danish Sign Language fluently and occasionally go back to Denmark to visit friends & family.

Recently I visited Danish embassy outside Denmark for passport renewal. The staff asked me which national was I prior to being Danish national. I said I was born in Denmark and never obtained other national. I thought that was it.

They did not like that answer and insisted on me giving them the answer. I simply said I didn’t know but did mention that my parents were immigrants. They asked which national were they prior to Danish citizenship. I said X country and they put this as my national prior to Danish national in their system.

Now I’m looking at the laws online, I can’t seem to make sense of it but it seems worrying as it means I could lose my Danish citizenship under specific circumstances?

Not necessarily. Depends also on where you are born and where your danish parent is born, and on more paperwork.

My brother is danish, but born abroad to danish patents. He can’t pass his citizenship on to his kids if they’re born abroad and/or to a foreign woman.
