Passport Problems:

- It's lost

- It's stolen

- Your home government won't or can't issue one

- Your home government rescinded it

- It's damaged

- It's missing a visa stamp

- It's got an undesirable visa stamp

- Etc.

Citizenship Problems:

- Poor visa-free travel (yes, this is a CITIZENSHIP issue)

- Limited geographic area of residence rights

- Travel restrictions (e.g. Russia, Iran)

- Economic sanctions (e.g. Iran)

- Immigration restrictions (e.g. U.S. visa bulletin & India)

- Mandatory military service (e.g. Singapore, Iran, Israel)

- Mandatory tax reporting (e.g. U.S.)

- Etc.

Passport problems are documentary in nature.

Citizenship problems are much more expansive, deep and complex in nature.

The problems are totally different.

Therefore, we can easily surmise passport ≠ citizenship.
