Why?
The right to have citizenship restored is set out in PS § 8(2) and KodS § 16(1). But under KodS § 16(2), a person who wants to restore it must live permanently in Estonia on the basis of an Estonian residence permit or right of residence. While living abroad, they cannot restore their citizenship.
