Frankly I have my doubts that's enough for many countries.

A few countries I've heard that basically you CAN'T "give up" your
citizenship. For others there are time based rules (i.e. the US has
this).

Even with this letter and passport having been sent, what's stopping her
from must applying for another passport? Given the "efficiency" of
passport offices in my experience there's little doubt in my mind that
there's a good chance a passport app would get through without issue.
Anybody else have experience with "dropping" a citizenship?
