Kodanikulisele

Kodanikulisele is a term used in Estonian law to refer to the process of naturalization, which is the legal process by which a foreigner becomes a citizen of a country. In Estonia, kodanikulisele is governed by the Citizenship Act, which outlines the requirements and procedures for obtaining Estonian citizenship. To be eligible for kodanikulisele, an individual must meet certain criteria, including a minimum period of legal residence in Estonia, proficiency in the Estonian language, and a good character record. The application process typically involves submitting an application to the Estonian Citizenship Office, providing necessary documentation, and undergoing a background check. Once approved, the applicant is granted Estonian citizenship, which confers various rights and responsibilities, including the right to vote and run for public office. Kodanikulisele is an important aspect of Estonia's immigration policy, as it allows the country to integrate foreign residents into its society while maintaining its national identity.
