Passport Application for baby born to British Parents outside UK

Post by tripas33 » Thu Oct 17, 2019 1:34 pm

Hello Members,

Can you kindly guide me if I can apply for British Passport for my son who is born in India from UK.
I have his birth certificate from India and I am in UK at present. On that basis can I apply for his passport in UK or does it needs to be applied from India only ?

I have seen the timelines for processing when applying from India is 16 weeks while applying from UK is 3 weeks hence thinking of later option.

Thanks,
Reg,
Tripas

Apply online. It is not relevant that the baby was born outside the UK.
