British Passport Application without BC

Post by kkb8689 » Mon Feb 10, 2025 9:23 pm

Hi Guys! I have just received my citizenship certificate and can now apply for a British passport! But before I apply I am reading online that one of the required documents is a birth certificate which I currently don’t have one. Will this be an issue?

Many thanks in advance

Where did you read this?

Birth certificate not required!
Your claim to British citizenship is by naturalisation.
Submit your certificate and current/expired passports.
That's all.

PS. Also, parents' or grandparents' details not required.

The online form may ask for it, but only because it wants to cover all bases. It doesn't apply to you.
All advice comes from personal research and experience and should not be regarded as professional opinion.
