#Firstpost Germany Tightens Immigration Policy, Scraps Fast-Track Citizenship Law | Firstpost Live | N18G

Germany has scrapped its fast-track citizenship law, reversing a key reform introduced by the previous government. The measure had allowed well-integrated migrants to apply for German citizenship after just three years of residency instead of five. Lawmakers voted overwhelmingly to repeal the rule, with both the ruling coalition and the far-right AfD supporting the move. Migrants can still continue to apply for citizenship after five years and dual nationality will be allowed in most cases. Chancellor Friedrich Merz’s government says the repeal restores control and credibility to immigration policy, even as Germany grapples with a severe labour shortage and rising political pressure over migration.
