No, you cannot apply directly for a passport as child is not British yet.
You must register the child on form MN1 as a British citizen first. Cost is £936 at present (goes up in April) and can take a few months.

Hi, I am on the same boat. Tried to find some information only but somehow found it really hard to get some straight answers.
Can anyone help with a list of documents that are needed to be submitted together with MN1 form.
Did anyone had the experience and how long did he take to get british citizenship?
Thank you
