Renouncing Pakistani Citizenship

Post by 134523452 » Thu Oct 01, 2015 8:44 pm

I want to renounce Pakistani citizenship but really struggling to find out the procedure. I am very busy and live far from London. All the phone numbers on the Pakistani embassy London website do not work (no one answers the call). (I know that some of you may say that I do not need to return the citizenship. I know that :) ) Does anyone know the procedure or has recently renounced the citizenship? How long does the procedure take? Many thanks in advance. I am happy to pay a solicitor to renounce the citizenship on my behalf, if thats possible. (Not too sure what solicitor to look for as its not an immigration matter. Not sure which category it comes under.)

Just visit the embassy- Mon-Fri between 9-12 a.m and pick up the 'renunciation of citizenship form'. Embassy never answer or return the phone calls.

Five photographs, Letter stating reasons for Renunciation, copy of british passport-british nationality certificate are requirements for renunciation of Pakistani citizenship. Just take the required docs back to embassy for submission.

Hey what reason you had to mention to renounce Pakistani nationality? And have you received the certificate yet? Thank you

Apologies for bumping an old thread but thought it might be helpful to know that the renunciation requirements are pretty faithful to the london consulate's website - at least that was the case with my recent application.
