Hi Dear All..

My British citizenship approved on 6th of December 2019 and my ceremony was on 19th December 2019 and got british passport received on 31st December 2019 and my new baby born outside UK on 1st January 2020. My question is that my new born baby is Brtitish citizen or I have to apply his Naturalisation? If british what documents do I need for his new British Passport? Please Guid me Thx

You are British otherwise than by descent as you are naturalised. Your child was born after you became British, your child is British by descent as born abroad. You may apply for the child’s British passport.

For documents required see, Overseas British passport applications (click).
