Hi Value members,

I have a concern bugging me so much. I have got my British passport through naturalisation. Now I would like to go abroad to live and experience diff things. I also want to go back home for few years and sort out some work there. My questions is next:

1)- can they cancelled my passport or citizenship if I don’t stay in UK?

2) after few years if I come on holiday, are they gonna create any issues or something?

3) I am married to an Indian citizen with Indian passport! If ever we blessed with a baby born in a diff country, can my child be automatically consider as a British citizen aswell?

Will be very greatful to any reply in advance.

Many thanks

1. No.

2. No.

3. Child born abroad will be British by Descent.

There is no law that you must live in the UK once British for x amount of months or years.

1)- can they cancelled my passport or citizenship if I don’t stay in UK? Like all British citizens you are free to come and go as you wish.

2) after few years if I come on holiday, are they gonna create any issues or something? as above

3) I am married to an Indian citizen with Indian passport! If ever we blessed with a baby born in a diff country, can my child be automatically consider as a British citizen aswell? I believe the child would be British by descent if born outside the UK, and could apply for a British passport.

Will be very greatful to any reply in advance.

Many thanks

Even if I fly the next day after receiving my passport, that won’t be any issue! There is no any rules that I need to live in the uk for certain time before going and live somewhere else.
