2. If you are a resident of the USA, Australia, Canada or any other country of the world and you are of Latvian descent, you have a chance to live, work or study in Europe by acquiring Latvian dual citizenship by descent. This gives you and your family several benefits apart from restoring your ancestralcitizenship. Herearejustsomeofthem: Right to live inthe EU and EFTA countries Latvia has been part of the EU for over a decade. Having Latvian dual citizenship gets you access to live in all countries in the following countries of the European Union and EFTA (Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway andSwitzerland). Right to work inthe EU and EFTA countries With a dual Latvianpassport, you can work freely in all EU member states, not only in Latvia. Maybe this will open a window of opportunity for you to get the job that you have been dreaming of.

Possibility to get high-quality education inEurope When deciding to move to Europe — one of the benefitsthat many people take into account is that their children can take Latvian citizenshipclass educational system of EU and EFTAcountries. Medical studies, for example, are free in most EU countries. Each country of the European Union has its approach to setting fees for its students. Your children should look around Europe to see which option suits them best, since all students of EU countries are treated equally and pay the same fees (or, rather, often, do not have to paythem).

4. 4. Avoiding Strict VisaRequirements With dual citizenship, you are protected by two governments. You can appeal to one or both governments’ embassies if any problem occurs when you travel. With Latvian passport, you will be able to travel without a visa to almost all European countries, USA, Canada, most of South America as well as Japan, Korea, Australia, New Zealand, and several Asian and Africancountries. In case Latvia does not have an embassy in a country whereyou travel, you would be able to get help from an embassy of any other EU country, since EU countries have a legal agreement to help each other's citizens, in case an embassy of their own country is absent (consularprotection).
