Moving to Germany from UK: EU parents American children

Post by happycamper19 » Sun Jan 31, 2016 8:32 pm

Hello,

My wife and I are newly naturalised UK citizens. We also have a child, who has American only citizenship.

We want to move to Germany from UK now. Do we need to obtain a UK citizenship for our child before she can join us in Germany? We want to put her in German state schools or kindergarten.

I will be grateful for any info.

Not necessary, she has the right to live there as a member of your family under EEA Regulations. This link with information on applying for a family permit in Germany should help you with the procedure.

Please don't send me PMs asking for immigration advice on posts that are on the open forum. If I haven't responded there, it's because I don't have the answer. I'm a moderator, not a legal professional.
