I was born in Hong Kong when it was a British territory and then moved to the US and naturalized as a citizen.
Does that mean I gave up my British citizenship?
Can I reclaim it and/or have a dual citizenship?

You would’ve been born a Citizen of the United Kingdom and Colonies but if your parents were Chinese then it’s very unlikely you have a claim to British citizenship now.

Is there a way to find out?

What passports did you emigrate to the US on and when did you leave Hong Kong?
