Can I become a Japanese citizen? - 08-19-2010, 10:59 PM

Hello, I am a new member and was wondering if I could find some advice here. I was born in Japan in 1976 to a Japanese mother and American father. I never made a choice about which nationality I wanted but I have always had an American passport which I think my father got for me when I was an infant. My parents moved to San Francisco soon after I was born and I have lived in the US ever since with occasional trips to Japan to visit family. Lately, I have been considering a move to Japan. My mom is also planning to move back after 34 years because she has no health insurance here. I'm sure this type of question is asked here all the time but I couldn't find any specific information. So the question is am I a Japanese citizen? Can I have dual citizenship? Thanks, Mayuko
