R.A. No. 9225 covers natural born Filipinos who lost Philippine citizenship because they were naturalized as citizens of a foreign country.

Step 1:             Prepare the following documents

Ø      Original Philippine Birth Certificate;

Ø      Old Philippine passport and its copies;

Ø      Original Marriage Contract and copy showing applicant is a Filipino at the time of marriage;

Ø      Current Foreign Passport and a copy (certified by the foreign embassy concerned);

Ø      Original Certificate of Naturalization or Citizenship in the foreign country and copy certified by the foreign embassy concerned; and

Ø      Two (2) recent 2 x 2 sized photos.

Step 2:             Visit the Embassy and get a Petition Form for Retention and/or Re-acquisition of Philippine Citizenship under Republic Act No. 9225 from Counter B or download this from the Embassy website at http://abudhabipe.dfa.gov.ph/sample-sites/form-downloads.

Step 3:             Applicant must indicate in his/her petition the following:

Ø      Full name in foreign passport. If there is a change of name, applicant should also state the name in his/her Philippine birth certificate and old Philippine passport;

Then proceed to the cashier and pay the corresponding processing fee of AED 100.

Step 5:             After complying with the above-mentioned requirements, the petition will be forwarded to an evaluating officer (Consul or Vice Consul). The evaluating officer may require additional documents, if there is a reason to believe that applicant is not a former natural-born Filipino.  Upon evaluation, the Consul or Vice Consul will prepare his/her recommendation to the Consul General.  After 5 days, the Consul General issues an Order of Approval and the corresponding Identification Certificate. If the documents submitted are not enough to establish that applicant is a former citizen, the applicant will be informed in writing by the Embassy.

Step 8:             Upon issuance of an Order of Approval, the applicant will be scheduled to take an Oath of Allegiance before the Consul General or a duly commissioned Foreign Service Officer (FSO).

Step 9:             The applicant takes the oath.  The applicant will be provided with official copies of the Order of Approval and the Oath of Allegiance and the Identification Certificate. These will also be forwarded to the DFA Home Office for transmittal to BI. Upon receipt, the BI Records Section will send copies of these documents to the National Statistics Office (NSO).  There is another fee of 100 AED for the Oath of Allegiance.

Step 10:           Applicant may opt to apply for a Philippine passport using hisIdentification Certificate to support his application.
