    Obtaining a German Passport
    Hi there!

    My Grandfather came to SA from germany about 60 years ago, he is now a SA citizen, and my mother doesn't have a german passport. What are my chances of getting one myself? And what would I need?

    The chance is near zero. Germany does not recognize dual citizenship, so if your grandfather became SA citizen, he must have abandoned German citizenship already.
