Applying passport in abroad after naturalization

Post by gunasekaranmohan » Tue Mar 05, 2013 8:44 pm

My naturalization application is approved. I am waiting for ceremony. I came to Ireland for short term (4 Months) in Ireland Green card visa. Is it possible to apply for UK passport in Ireland (abroad)? Or should I be in UK, apply passport and then come to Ireland.

Could you please help me with your advice? Has anyone had same situation before?

You can apply for a passport abroad, however, you are not a British citizen until after your ceremony.

Thanks for replying.. After the ceremony in UK, I need to come back to Ireland for the work. Can I still use my Indian passport to travel and then apply UK passport in Ireland at UK embassy?

Yes you coud do that providing you coud travel on the basis of your current passport. You do know that you can't have dual citizenship in India right? Technically it is revoked upon gaining British citizenship.
