Гражданство по происхождению (jus sanguinis) при рождении — один из родителей является гражданином (статья 10(а))
Гражданство в стране Georgia
- Право на участие
- Грузия приобретает гражданство при рождении по праву крови: лицо является гражданином Грузии по рождению, если на момент его рождения один из его родителей является гражданином Грузии (статья 10(а)). Достаточно любого родителя, и это правило НЕ содержит ограничений по поколению и территориальных ограничений — закон требует, чтобы только один из родителей имел грузинское гражданство на момент рождения ребенка. Ребенок, который при рождении приобретает как грузинское, так и иностранное гражданство, сохраняет оба гражданства с рождения до 18 лет, но гражданство Грузии прекращается по достижении 18 лет, если заявление о сохранении не подано в период несовершеннолетия (статья 21-1(3)).

Обзор
Georgia acquires citizenship at birth by jus sanguinis: a person is a citizen of Georgia by birth if, at the moment of his/her birth, one of his/her parents is a citizen of Georgia (Art 10(a)). Either parent suffices, and the rule carries NO generational limit and NO territorial qualifier — the statute requires only that one parent hold Georgian citizenship at the child's birth. A child who at birth acquires both Georgian and a foreign citizenship retains both from birth until the age of 18, but the Georgian citizenship is terminated at 18 unless a retention application is filed during minority (Art 21-1(3)).

Примеры сценариев
Примеры сценариев приведены на английском языке.
eligible
Citizen by birth under Art 10(a): at least one parent (here both) is a Georgian citizen at the moment of birth. Acquisition is automatic and single (no foreign citizenship), so the Art 21-1 retention/single-citizenship machinery is not engaged.
eligible
Citizen by birth under Art 10(a): a person is a citizen of Georgia by birth if at the moment of birth one of the parents is a Georgian citizen. The single-parent rule suffices (either parent), and no territorial qualifier or oath applies to by-birth acquisition (Art 8 oath is for naturalisation only). Acquisition is automatic at birth.
conditional
She acquired Georgian citizenship by birth under Art 10(a) and a foreign citizenship by birth, so under Art 21-1(3) she retains Georgian citizenship from birth UNTIL age 18; if a retention application is not submitted before she reaches 18 her Georgian citizenship is TERMINATED. The Georgian status is retained at present but is conditional on a timely Art 21-1(3) retention application by a parent/legal representative (with the other parent's consent if filed by one) before majority.
not eligible
Under Art 21-1(3) a by-birth Georgian/foreign minor retains Georgian citizenship only until 18; because no retention application was submitted before majority, his Georgian citizenship was TERMINATED at 18. He is now a former citizen and would have to pursue restoration (GE-RST-01) rather than assert subsisting by-birth citizenship.
eligible
Once Georgian citizenship attaches at birth under Art 10(a), it is independent of subsequent parental citizenship changes: Art 5(4) provides a change in the citizenship of one or both parents shall not result in a change of the children's citizenship. Tamar remains a Georgian citizen notwithstanding her mother's later change.
eligible
Art 10(a) keys acquisition to a parent being a Georgian citizen 'at the moment of birth'. Once parentage to the Georgian-citizen father is legally established, the by-birth bond attaches as of birth. (Per GE-ASSERT-006, the timing mechanics of establishing parentage sit in the Civil Code and are flagged NLR-MED; the citizenship-statute eligibility itself is met because the father was a Georgian citizen at the child's birth.)
