Hi

I am a British Citizen and so as my wife and including our two children who are British by birth. We (I and my wife) are British Citizen by naturalisation or registration. I have moved to Pakistan few years ago and am working here for now.

If my child is born in Pakistan, will he/she be eligible to apply for British Citizenship and be able to apply for British Passport? If so, what is the process that I have to follow (here in Pakistan) in order to register my to be newborn child and apply for his/her British passport.

I hope someone can help me clarifying the process and guide me in the right direction.

Thanks

Your child will automatically British wherever s(he) is born. You just apply for a British Passport abroad using the online service.

What was her response?
Anyway if you can easily print them out then that's a better option in my view (many vending machines printout photos).

Just had my interview as I was coming and going to Pk he said you have the love for that country why do you want your son to have a British passport I said I am settled here have a good job and now want to be with my family so he said are you willing to conduct a DNA test I said sure why not.
Questions were like mainly why did you spend so much time in pk I said because o got married then he said they will contact you in 3-4 weeks about your application for your son showed him photos messages which was never ending so fingers crossed everything will be fine

Thanks for information and best of luck.

This is by no means a confirmation, but at the end of the interview, did he make you sign on an electronic pad?

No all he said was i will submit my report at the end of that day and your case worker will inform you in 3-4 weeks of outcome

Not signing on the electronic pad does that mean it is a refusal for my childs british passport application

I am guessing that because its outside of UK so perhaps he was just being difficult to asses how genuine was the case, you didn't panic there so no need to panic now. Good luck.
