| Feb 12, 2022 at 18:20 | comment | added | xngtng | @user102008 the implicit logic seems to be that by availing yourself to foreign protection after turning 18, you are choosing to "voluntarily" acquire another nationality as an adult. | |
| Feb 12, 2022 at 18:09 | comment | added | xngtng | @user102008 and it's a such common scenerio for which a lot of discussions and practical experience exists on Chinese forums. e.g. uscardforum.com/t/topic/48022 An exit permit is issued for exit China, neither a passport nor proper travel document. | |
| Feb 12, 2022 at 18:04 | comment | added | xngtng | @user102008 you won't find any instructions on applying for one except for children. ch.china-embassy.org/ls_fw_s/lxzj/201901/t20190102_3389894.htm the people eligible for travel document under nationality conflicts category are children only. | |
| Feb 12, 2022 at 18:01 | comment | added | xngtng | @user102008 the main point of the answer is the practicality: even if art. 9 doesn't apply, i.e. double nationality is kept, the treatment wouldn't be different from those born with dual nationality, i.e. no way to obtain a Chinese passport without renunciation of other nationalities. There is no straightforward way to obtain judicial review of government decisions if they deem you a foreigner. | |

| Feb 12, 2022 at 17:44 | comment | added | user102008 | This isn't relevant to the question, as the question is about the interpretation of Article 9 of the PRC nationality law (on voluntary acquisition of foreign nationality), whereas the case of people born with dual nationality doesn't involve Article 9. | |
