Relinquishing Nationality
Nationality can be revoked only if it was conferred upon a person by naturalization, unless the person willfully surrenders his citizenship.
It can be revoked if the naturalized alien provided false information in his/her application. It can also be revoked if the person is sentenced to prison for at least a year or fined at least BDT 1,000 ($14) within five years of the naturalization, or if the person loses contact with Bangladesh for at least seven years. Defection by trade and communication with an enemy at war or remaining a citizen of an enemy state at war will also result in denaturalization.

Famous quotes containing the word nationality:
“Rarely do American parents deliberately teach their children to hate members of another racial, religious, or nationality group. Many parents, however, communicate the prevailing racial attitudes to their children in subtle and sometimes unconscious ways.”
—Kenneth MacKenzie Clark (20th century)
