What rights and privileges am I entitled to once I reacquire my Philippine Citizenship?
Once you reacquire your Philippine citizenship, you will once again enjoy full civil, economic and political rights under existing Philippine laws.
Among these rights are:
1. the right to travel with a Philippine passport;
2. the right to own real property in the Philippines;
3. the right to engage in business and commerce as a Filipino; and
