British Overseas Territories Citizen - Loss of BOTC

Loss of BOTC

BOTC can be lost involuntarily through

  • deprivation under conditions similar to those for British citizens
  • independence of the territory concerned

The provisions for renunciation and resumption of BOTC mirror those for British citizenship. See British nationality law

Acquisition of a foreign citizenship does not cause loss of BOTC, however it may cause loss of Belonger status depending on the laws of the territory concerned.
