一、美國
加入美國籍的誓言是最長、最為具體和最具限定性。從內容前，反映出美國移民國家的特性。英文原文如下：
I hereby declare, on oath, that I absolutely and entirely renounce and abjure all allegiance and fidelity to any foreign prince, potentate, state, or sovereignty of whom or which I have heretofore been a subject or citizen; that I will support and defend the Constitution and laws of the United States of America against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I will bear arms on behalf of the United States when required by the law; that I will perform noncombatant service in the Armed Forces of the United States when required by the law; that I will perform work of national importance under civilian direction when required by the law; and that I take this obligation freely without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; so help me God.
參考譯文：
我宣誓：我完全徹底斷絕并徹底放棄對我迄今為止所隸屬或作為其公民的任何外國王子、當權者、國家或君主的效忠和忠誠；我將支持和捍衛美利堅合眾國憲法和法律，反對國內外一切敵人；我將信念堅定，忠誠不渝；我將根據法律要求為美國拿起武器；我將根據法律要求在美國武裝部隊中執行非作戰服務；我將根據法律要求，在文職政府領導下從事對國家具有重要性的工作。我自愿承擔這一義務，毫無保留，決不逃避。幫助我吧，上帝！
二、英國
英國的誓言比較簡單，只強調對王室的忠誠。英文原文如下：
I, [name], [swear by Almighty God] [do solemnly, sincerely and truly affirm and declare] that, on becoming a British citizen, I will be faithful and bear true allegiance to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, her heirs, and successors, according to law.
參考譯文：
我（姓名）（以上帝的名義）莊嚴宣誓：在成為英國公民之際，我將根據法律忠實地效忠于女王伊麗莎白二世陛下，她的后嗣和繼任者。
自2004年1月1日起，申請成為英國公民的人還被要求作出如下承諾：
I will give my loyalty to the United Kingdom and respect its rights and freedoms. I will uphold its democratic values. I will observe its laws faithfully and fulfil my duties and obligations as a British citizen.
我將忠誠于大英帝國，尊重它的權利和自由。我將支持它的民主價值觀。我將切實遵守它的法律，履行作為一個英國公民應盡的職責和義務。
三、澳大利亞
英語原文：
From this time forward, under God, I pledge my loyalty to Australia and its people, whose democratic beliefs I share, whose rights and liberties I respect, and whose laws I will uphold and obey.
參考譯文：
從即時起，我宣誓忠于澳大利亞和它的人民，我認同他們的民主信念，尊重他們的權利和自由，支持和遵守他們的法律。
作為英聯邦國家，加拿大、新西蘭、牙買加等國的誓言是一致的，只不過把國名換了一下，強調的也是效忠女王。
四、加拿大
英文原文：
I swear (or affirm) that I will be faithful and bear true allegiance to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth the Second, Queen of Canada, Her Heirs and Successors, and that I will faithfully observe the laws of Canada and fulfill my duties as a Canadian citizen.
參考譯文：
我宣誓：我將忠實地效忠加拿大女王伊麗莎白二世陛下、她的后嗣和繼任者；我將切實遵守加拿大的法律，履行作為加拿大公民的責任。
五、新西蘭
英文原文：
I [name] solemnly and sincerely affirm that I will be faithful and bear true allegiance to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth the Second, Queen of New Zealand, Her heirs and successors according to the law, and that I will faithfully observe the laws of New Zealand and fulfil my duties as a New Zealand citizen.
我（姓名）莊嚴并真誠宣誓：我將根據法律忠實地效忠新西蘭女王伊麗莎白二世陛下、她的后嗣和繼任者；我將切實遵守新西蘭的法律，履行作為新西蘭公民的責任。
六、牙買加
I, [name], do swear that I will be faithful and bear true allegiance to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, Her Heirs and Successors according to law and that I will faithfully observe the laws of Jamaica and fulfil my duties as a citizen of Jamaica.
我（姓名）宣誓：我將根據法律忠實地效忠牙買加女王伊麗莎白二世陛下、她的后嗣和繼任者；我將切實遵守牙買加的法律，履行作為牙買加公民的責任。
