Can a child born over seas to military parents acitizen of the us

They may have dual citizenship. If a child is born in another country, but on a military installation or US territory, i.e Guam, Puerto Rico, US Virgin Islands, then they are a US citizen, as these are considered US soil. If their parents are US citizens living abroad and have not denounced their citizenship, then they are US citizens once they return to the states and supply the proper documents such as a translated birth certificate. Some countries restrict dual citizenship by requiring naturalized citizens to renounce the other citizenship upon attaining adulthood. So it really depends on the laws of the country they were born in. One thing to make note of.... if a child is born into a country that allows dual citizenship and they have a draft policy during times of war, that person can be drafted. Also, they may be required to pay taxes even if they do not live in that country. They are still bound to the laws of both countries that they have citizenship in. Hope this answered your question.

They are automatically a US citizen, but they can apply for dual citizenship status in the country that they were born into. My brother-in-law was born overseas while my father-in-law was stationed there and he is a U.S. citizen.
