You'd be best served by calling them yourself and asking them what each level of service offers you , and then deciding for yourself.

Hello hunnysia,

I am in a similar situation and it would be great if you can give some more details.

1. What documents did you submit ?
2. Cost of priority service (website shows two : one at ~21k INR and another at ~57k INR)
3. Did you work out the birth certificate name issue before applying ?

Many thanks,
BL69

Hello rd26878,
Did you manage to get COE/Right of abode for your child?

How long did it take? Apart from the docs you have mentioned above, are there any other documents that you have provided ?

I am looking to apply for my new born child who is in Pakistan and wondering if it is better to apply for this COE rather than a British Passport. Please suggest.

Thanks,
Hammad.

Hi hunnysia,

This was extremely useful. I'm applying for the RoA for my child too.. if you could please advise on the following would be so helpful (also the question of BL69)

1. Did you work out on the name of the child in the birth certificate? I have the same issue and since i urgently need to apply for RoA, I'm running out of time to get the birth certificate sorted.

2. How much did the priority service cost you?

3. What docs did you provide in summary? Did you also submit a TB certificate?

I'd be grateful if you could respond.

Many Thanks!

Hi NP0020,

I have applied and received ROA for my baby already. I have put in my experience here : british-citizenship/coe-roa-application ... 75590.html

1. Yes, the name of the child in birth certificate is mandatory. This one took the longest (and led to some friction) to sort out due to rules in my state (TN). Thankfully it was sorted out by friends/relatives
2. it is around 20k -21k, depends on exchange rate
3. Please see my thread, I have put in all the details. I got a TB certificate but it is not required for children below 6 months.


Hope that helps.

Cheers,
BL69

Thanks very much BL69 and congratulations on a smooth ToA for your little one.
Your experience is extremely helpful for me. I was planning to take the premium lounge too but might think again..

Take care.

Hi,
I am applying for ROE for my little daughter. Our daughter is 3 month old, do we still have to take the TB certificate? Based on what you said, we do not need TB certificate. Could you please let me know where did you find that children under 6 months old don't need TB certificate. Please provide the source, It will be peace of mind for us. I would like to avoid unnecessary money and effort.
