Debated in Parliament on 4 Jul 2022.
Mr Seah Kian Peng asked the Minister for Home Affairs from 2012 to 2021, how many of those who have renounced their Singapore citizenship subsequently requested for it to be reinstated.
We do not track the number of people who asked to reinstate their citizenship after renunciation.
Under the Singapore Constitution, individuals who have renounced their Singapore citizenship cannot appeal to have it reinstated. If they wish to become Singapore citizens again, they have to put in a new citizenship application.
