Legal citizenship has special characteristics, the persons who acquire it keep their nationality of origin. Legal citizens acquire political rights but do not acquire nationality as natural citizens do. This peculiar distinction between citizenship and nationality has caused problems with legal citizens' passports at airports around the world and restricted their freedom of movement.</small> || {{Yes}} || [[Uruguayan nationality law]] || <ref>{{cite web|title=Uruguay|url=https://www.dualcitizenshipreport.org/dual-citizenship/uruguay/|access-date=2020-11-05|website=Dual Citizenship|language=en-US}}</ref>
