Applicants for naturalization renounce allegiance to the foreign countries of which they were formally citizens.

In the United States, to become a citizen through naturalization, the applicant is required to undertake an oath renouncing previous allegiances and owe their allegiance to the U.S. instead. Once a citizen, the person will have the duty to exercise their rights and responsibilities stated in the nation's Constitution and receive protection as well.
