COE for baby new born in India

[ARUNK115]

Hi ,

I am a British citizen by Naturalisation and planning to apply for Certificate of Entitlement for baby born in India. My wife is an Indian but with Tier -2 Intra Company Transfer Visa(Eligible to work in UK) and is in India with the baby.
I have been looking at various sites to understand the COE supporting document requirements for the baby but am still not clear.
Please could you let me know if the following supporting document alone is sufficient:
1. My Naturalization Certificate.


Are there any other supporting documents that I would need to submit?..
2. Do I have to send a solicitor certified copy of ALL the pages of British Passport? - Is this required?
3. Do I need to provide my Salary Slips or bank statements?
4. Do I need to provide a letter from my Estate Agent stating the size of the house/No. of rooms?

Kindly Advice. Thank you!

2. Do I have to send a solicitor certified copy of ALL the pages of British Passport? - Is this required?

No just a copy would suffice - Although there is no harm in sending a certified copy but send the Original copy of Naturalisation Certificate

3. Do I need to provide my Salary Slips or bank statements?

You can send three month bank statement to provide evidence that you will able to finance her trip to UK.

4. Do I need to provide a letter from my Estate Agent stating the size of the house/No. of rooms?

No need for this.

Hi Arun,

I hope you got the CoE for Right to Abode for your baby.

I am in similar boat. Can you please help me with following question:
1. What is the link to the page to apply for CoE online.
2. Do I need to apply from VFS or directly at British high commission?
3. How long did it take for you to get the CoE.

Thanks & Regards:
