Hong Kong dual nationality

Upvote:-1

I've found these responses on a forum which seem similar to what I'm asking.

Basically the HKID card is proof of residency, not nationality. If you have never applied for or gotten a HKSAR passport, and you only have an Australian one, then you are simply a citizen of Australia.

I'm not sure if this is 100% correct. Would anyone like to second this?

If a person was born before 19 Aug 1986 in Australia they have the right to Australian citizenship. If they were born after that date, then one of their parents has to be an Australian citizen or Permanent Resident in order to qualify for Australian citizenship.

So in this case it would dependent on whether the parents had Permanent Resident status or not.
