Child Citizenship

Child Citizenship

Who

If you are under the age of 18 and would like to become a British citizen, you can apply under this route.

When

If you were born in the UK, you can register to become a British citizen after one of your parents has become a settled person or has attained British citizenship. If one of your parents was already a settled person or had British citizenship when you were born, you will automatically be a British citizen.

Where

You can apply within the UK, and if your application is successful you will need to attend a citizenship ceremony, at which you will need to make a pledge.

What

There are various circumstances under which a child may be eligible to register for British citizenship, and so we would need to assess the particular circumstances of the case to find out whether the child can become a British citizen. If the child is aged 10 or over, they will also need to demonstrate good character.
