Please advise on below:

Child born abroad (Pakistan) to British Parent (Father BP holder). I believe child can apply for British Passport.

Please advise if this is correct application form (https://assets.publishing.service.gov.u ... rm_010.pdf) and need to be submitted via post as I couldn't find an online application form to fill in.

Also, if an appointment to be made with vfs, vfs website instructions are "you cannot book an appointment until you’ve completed and submitted a visa application on GOV.UK (the UK government website" but there is no online application form unless I am missing something..

please advise.

thanks

This takes me back to main page, where there is a section "How to apply" and first step is to download the application form. Also, guidance is "Making your application You must apply in person. If you’re unable to, someone else can go on your behalf. You must bring photo ID with you".

Still couldn't find an online application form. Please advise if application to be made in person.

thanks

Child is in PK, never been to UK, his father is in UK.

I need to know whether Child first passport application can be submitted online? or this has to be submitted in person via an appointment in Pk.

Just proceed with mock application details i.e 2 years old child, born and residing in Pk and see where this take you to.
