How to Get another Citizenship? Easiest way?

What right does the parents receive if the child becomes Canadian? Temporary or Permanent residence?
The parents get no rights, hence useless for me personally.
Also, I'm already naturalised Canadian by living there for 5 years and paying a s**t ton of taxes.


In Mexico and Brasil you can apply for permanent resident Visa when your child is a citizen, and then after 1 year can apply for Citizenship. f**k Canada lol

Moldova seems rather interesting:

It has a CBI program but one can also opt for naturalization.

Citizenship may be granted to anyone who has reached the age of 18, and who meets one of the following criteria:
1) Has resided lawfully and habitually for five years before reaching the age of 18
2) has resided lawfully and habitually for three years with parents or children (including adoptive) who are citizens of Moldova

Different Free Economic Zones and tax incentives are available:

CBI in Moldova closed down years ago. It was only opened for a very short period of time (less than a year) due to EU pressure. Only 5 applicants were approved.

Oh well, it's surprising that they are still keeping the outdated information on the official government websites today.
 
What exactly are the advantages of having a Moldovan passport for an EU citizen in your opinion?
When the rope is getting tighter around the neck Moldova and Transnistria offer a breath of fresh air to EU citizens.

Moldova:
Visa free access to Russia
Dual citizenship allowed
Not the worst tax system
Potential for business and investments
Due to proximity to Ukraine (war zone) the country will depreciate a lot as investors are reluctant to pump money to the region so I believe you can get value for your money

Transnistria is interesting and super easy for residence and citizenship. Nice option for zero tax. Great to keep one foot out of the tentacles of United Nations members.

No crs
0% VAT
0% Income tax for a period of 10 years
0% Tax on dividends for a period of 10 years
290 sunny days per year but not microwave hot
Everyone can go there and stay visa free:
Transnistrian producers have the opportunity to export goods to the EU and do not pay taxes

How easy is it to get Transnistria citizenship? Anybody have an idea?
This is probably the easiest citizenship to apply in the world. Generally you can obtain citizenship after 1 year of residence, but there are exemptions, e.g. if you invest in a local company at least EUR 1.2k

Citizenship:

What is the point of a Mexican passport. You will get nowhere with it
 
You guys watching too much of Bald and Bankrupt... Moldova is more corrupted than Ukraine and honestly quite frankly not the greatest place to live in, a lot of local Mafia and crime as well. Not as bad as the USA of course, but still...
But show me one country where its easier to get a passport than Prednistrovie :)

As I said before, "It has no benefit. the country is not recognized by any country besides for a few regions. Also, most people in transnistria either have moldovan, russian or ukranian citizenship. I doubt they use or have trasnitrian citizenship"

You cannot travel anywhere with it or even use it for KYC. There is no advantages to having Prednistrovie citizenship just like no benefits in having disputed territories passports such as Nagorno Karabakh, Turkish Cyprus, etc...

In these ex-soviet countries everything is done through connections, so I wouldn't be suprised if you even would be able to get Moldovan citizenship for a small price.

I agree it has very limited use cases.
I can imagine if someone was wanted by INTERPOL which covers 194 jurisdictions, such areas like Transnistria would be potential places to lay low for a while, as despite being internationally recognised as part of Moldova, in practice Moldova doesn't control this area.

Some governments have been accused of using Interpol's Red Notices (a kind of international alert for wanted persons) to target political opponents, dissidents, journalists, and activists living abroad.
Interpol's Red Notices do not have a fixed expiration date. However, they are typically valid for a period of five years, after which they can be renewed by the requesting country. It's worth noting that if the legal basis for the Red Notice (such as a domestic arrest warrant) expires or is rescinded, the Red Notice should also be removed.

Goodness me, who in their right mind would want a Transnistrian citizeship? Moldova yes, it's a recognised country and it might join EU in the future. It's trying hard to cut all its ties and dependencies on Russia. Their new president and parliament is pro-European and fighting against corruption. I kinda like Maia Sandu, she is cool. But their biggest problem is exactly Transnistria. There's also a possibility that Moldova might unite with Romania.

I have to disagree with you on this. It's not as easy as one might think. I'm not saying it's not possible, but it won't be cheap. People tried. It opens you a door to a Romanian citizenship. It's probably easier to buy a citizenship in some Balkan country than it is in Moldova.

I'm not sure that passport will even help you in that case as you will be detained in every airport and on every border regardless. And the Trasinitria passport does not let you travel anywhere on it, so you will need to anyway use you original passport when boarding flights or crossing the border.

At one point they might merge with one of the neighbouring countries which could open doors to getting a citizenship against your transnistrian passport.

In summary, yes the passport is quite pointless, but the original question of the thread was were to get easiest passport for someone who basically has a hobby of collecting passports.
