Here are just some of them
If you are a resident of the USA, Australia,
Canada or any other country of the world and you
are of Latvian descent, you have a chance to
live, work or study in Europe by acquiring
Latvian dual citizenship by descent. This gives
you and your family several benefits apart from
restoring your ancestral citizenship.

• Right to live in the EU and EFTA countries
• Latvia has been part of the EU for over a decade.
  Having Latvian dual citizenship gets you access
  to live in all countries in the following
  countries of the European Union and EFTA
  (Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway and
  Switzerland).
• Right to work in the EU and EFTA countries
• With a dual Latvian passport, you can work freely
  in all EU member states, not only in Latvia.
  Maybe this will open a window of opportunity for
  you to get the job that you have been dreaming
  of.

3. Possibility to get high-quality education in
Europe When deciding to move to Europe one of
the benefits that many people take into account
is that their children can take Latvian
citizenship class educational system of EU and
EFTA countries.
Medical studies, for example, are free in most EU
countries. Each country of the European Union
has its approach to setting fees for its
students. Your children should look around Europe
to see which option suits them best, since all
students of EU countries are treated equally and
pay the same fees (or, rather, often, do not
have to pay them).

4. Avoiding Strict Visa Requirements With dual
citizenship, you are protected by two
governments. You can appeal to one or both
governments embassies if any problem occurs
when you travel. With Latvian passport, you will
be able to travel without a visa to almost all
European countries, USA, Canada, most of South
America as well as Japan, Korea, Australia, New
Zealand, and several Asian and African
countries. In case Latvia does not have an
embassy in a country where you travel, you would
be able to get help from an embassy of any other
EU country, since EU countries have a legal
agreement to help each other's citizens, in case
an embassy of their own country is absent
(consular protection).

5. EU healthcare system If you are a citizen of
Latvia, you have access to world-class
healthcare systems of a number of the EU
countries free of charge or at highly subsidized
rates.With Latvian citizenship, therefore EU
citizenship, when visiting any EU country for
short periods you can receive basic and
emergency care with a Latvian dual passport
stay in another state of the EU or Switzerland
whether on holiday, a business trip or while
studying you will be entitled to any medical
care that can not wait until you get home. You
have the same right to health care as citizens
of the EU country you are in.

6. Latvian and EU citizenship for your
children If you have Latvian citizenship, your
children can get Latvian citizenship
automatically or get the rights of EU citizens
and would also be able to keep other
citizenship, if they acquire them by birth. By
obtaining Latvian citizenship you are getting
citizenship not only for yourself but also for
your children, grandchildren and
great-grandchildren. This is a great opportunity
for your family and future generations.
7. Residence permit in EU for your spouse When
restoring your Latvian citizenship your family
gets several benefits and one of the main
benefits is the right to live and work for your
spouse in most of the EU countries. After living
in the EU for some time, your spouse will be
able to get a permanent residence and,
eventually, citizenship.

  to start a business in any EU country on the
  same basis as EU citizens. EU citizenship will
  also help if you plan to establish a branch of
  your current business in Europe.
• Boost your career by having EU citizenship
• It is not a secret that Latvian citizenship gives
  you lots of opportunities to boost your
  career.Try to consider the possibility to boost
  your career, to grow professionally, overcome
  challenges and gain new experience with EU
  citizenship. Building your career in EU
  countries might be a great option for you.

  in the countries of the European Union without a
  need for residence and work permits, as European
  citizens can live anywhere in the EU and EEA
  countries (i.e.
