Hi,
My son was born in the US in 2009 while me and my wife were working there. So, he is a US citizen and holds US passport. We both were working on non-immigrant US visas. We moved back to India in 2015 and since then we are living in India. We renewed his US passport in US Consulate, Chennai in 2021. He has the US passport valid till 2026. We do not have an intention to move back to the US. He doesn't have an inclination to move back to the US too. The question we have is that does he need to mandatorily renounce the US citizenship when he turns 18 years old? Or can he hold the citizenship beyond that? What if he decides to move back to the US for post graduation let's say at the age of 21 or 22? Let me know.
