Test for Citizenshp















Individuals who wish to apply for citizenship under the second citizenship programme offered by the Government of Dominica are eager to know whether there is a test for citizenship or whether there is a citizenship exam.

Fortunately, no written test or exam exists.  However, individuals must complete three main forms:
  • Application Form 12
  • Disclosure Form
  • Medical Questionnaire
Application Form 12 and the Disclosure Form are to be notorized and the Medical Questionnaire is to be completed by a registered medical doctor.

Additionally, there exist a test of character in the form of due diligence and an interview.

Citizenship Interview

All applicants are subjected to an interview in order to qualify for dual citizenship. The location of the citizenship interview is determined by the applicant.  The interview for second citizenship is conducted in English, however, a translator is provided for non-English-speaking applicants at a fee.

The interviewing panel consists of 3 persons: one official  from each of the following Ministries; Ministry of Legal Affairs, Ministry of Nationality Security and Ministry of Finance. 

Interview questions for citizenship under Dominica's second citizenship programe fall within these categories:
  • Dominica ( social,  political and economic life; geography and history)
  • Personal (personal information and eligiblity; purpose of dual citizenship;contribution to Dominica; allegiance)
All payments must be made before the interviews can take place. In cases where applicants fail the process a refund is made.
