Hello
I have just received confirmation of dual citizenship for my status as a Filipino and Australian citizen. The last step of this process is to do an oath taking. My husband and I will be travelling to the Philippines next year and I am hoping to do my oath taking there instead, if possible.
Thank you for any advice given.

Good day
My name is Amanda Rhodes and my DOB is 4 September 1992. My newly acquired citizenship is from Australia.
I had processed my dual citizenship papers at the Philippine Embassy here in Australia. The Philippine Embassy has confirmed that I am eligible for dual citizenship and that the next step would be to do an oath taking.
Due to my husband and I visiting the Philippines next year, I am hoping to instead do my oath taking in the Philppines. Is this possible?
