Registration for child whose parents aren't citizens
Posted: Sat Oct 25, 2025 9:46 am
Hi.
Just a question; I was going through the MN1 guide for registering a child born outside the UK. And from what I could gather, it seems that normally one of the parents would have to be either a British citizen, or be of British descent. Towards the end of the guide however, it seems that there is a provision that if the parents are applying at the same time, the child can indeed be registered. I just wanted to see if you could help me to confirm that?
Thank you!
