New British passport for child

Post by Hassan55 » Thu Nov 26, 2020 1:27 pm

I have got ILR 1 year ago.
My wife got spouses visa.
We are married.
I have already registered the baby for birth certificate.

Can I apply for British passport for my child?

What documents do I need to send with application?

Many thanks

Yes, with your ILR BRP and the child's British birth certificate.

If you naturalise in the future, be sure not to surrender your ILR BRP as that is the basis of your child's (and their children's) citizenship.
