Practical Guide for Registration
The acquisition of the Lebanese nationality does not lead to the loss of any citizenship acquired in a foreign country.Some people are concerned about the consequences of registration in Lebanon on the citizenship in the country in which they live. Registration merely records the life events in Lebanon (i.e., birth, marriage etc...) it does not affect citizenship at all.
The right to register comes from the existence of a family line, devolved through the father. When people register life events, it does not mean they are accepting citizenship or giving up any right of the citizenship they hold.
N.B:
Ask the Embassy or the consulate for the file number under which your application was transferred to Lebanon and keep it for tracking your file later on. You can provide the Maronite Foundation with this number in order to assist in shepherding your application to its rightful conclusion.
You just need to follow the steps detailed below:
Step one:
You need to fill out the appropriate Form (Marriage, Divorce, Birth, Death, Citizenship) - included in this brochure-.
Step Two:
Once the appropriate form filled, send it by mail to the nearest Lebanese Embassy, Consulate, who in turn will forward it to the proper Lebanese authorities for processing.
Step Three:
Ask the Embassy/Consulate for the application number under which your application was sent to Lebanon via the diplomatic pouch
  Step Four:
Just keep in mind you need to have the tracking number of your file.
In Lebanon, if your application is in order, it will be automatically processed and activated. You will be informed of its status thru the Embassy, the consulate or our office if you choose to.
