Hi all,
Firstly I apologise in advance if I have created a new conversation about something already posted. I did have a look for a similar post but couldn't find anything. Also this is the first forum post I have ever done.
My question is as follows. Can I automatically pass on my citizenship to my daughter? Some background information as to why I am a little confused.
1. I am British citizen (41 years old) currently working in China for the last few years
2. Registered British at birth (1977) in South Africa as parents were working there for a few years.
3. Both parents are British born and bred, and their parents and grandparents are all born and bred, British citizens.
4. My daughter was born in China (2014)
5. She is currently registered as Chinese citizen with Chinese passport.
Because my citizenship was granted because of my fathers nationality as I was born outside the UK, I have been advised I might not be able to pass my citizenship on to my daughter automatically.
I have rang the passport office and also the department dealing with foreign applications and neither person who I contacted was able to give me a clear answer.
If anyone can advise the correct process I need to take I would be very appreciative.
