The move comes to reflect national awareness, a high sense of responsibility, and positive cooperation with procedures facilitated by the decree.
“Relevant staff and committees have begun their technical and procedural work to review the applications, verify the data, and complete the necessary processing requirements, in preparation for finalizing the citizenship procedures according to established legal principles,” the directorate told SANA in a statement.
