Sub: French Nationality
Ramane,

Sir,

My father was born on 5-10-1932 in Pondicherry which was (French-India) at that time. So my father was a person of French nationality by his birth. His Father (My Grand Father) was also born in Pondicherry (French-India) and my Grand Mother was born and from Tamil Nadu which was under the (British rule). Also my Great Grant Father is also born and lived in Pondicherry (French-India).

My mother was born in Tamilnadu on 10-6-1947 which was under the (British rule) at that time. My father and my Mother got married on 9-9-1962 in Puducherry. At the time of their marriage my father’s age was 30 years old. Now both are living in Pondicherry (India).

The Franco-Indian treaty of 1956 which came into force on 16.08.1962. According to Article - 5, on 16.08.1962 my father was not married and because of this he was not able to make his choice of Nationality by himself and also he was not an unmarried child of less than eighteen years of age.

Is it possible for my Mother and my father to re-acquire French Nationality by Immigration-Citizenship and Marriage Act now? Please Help Me Sir and please reply Sir. My E-Mail Id is: raman.importantfiles@gmail.com

Mr. Arunkumar. sub. french nationality
Sir, If you read carefully my reply to your previous question, you will find that it is also the reply to your present question. You are at liberty to file a suit for declaring you as a french national. For this you have to engage an French advocate in France and file the suit if he/she agrees, before the Court of grand instance at Paris. The advocate's may be 3000 euros equivalent to 2 1/2 lakhs ruees. If you are really interested to know whether you can get or not the french nstionality certificate,I advise you to choose one french advocate in France and seek his opinion hy sending at first copies of all documents in your poessession. Yours sincerely
