Summary
Depends on whether home law requires reporting or bans dual nationality.
Short answer: some states require reporting foreign naturalisation; some treat it as automatic loss; some tolerate dual status. Check home nationality law, not only the new country’s rules.
FAQ
If I don’t notify?
Passport, public office or legality may be affected.
Hong Kong residents?
Declaration and travel-document issues need professional advice.
US notification?
US does not auto-require “notice of renunciation” for another citizenship, but tax and other duties continue.
