Yes, a child born in India to an Indian mother (or father) is Indian by birth and can apply for Indian passport. If the other parent is British, then the child is also British by birth and can apply for CoE RoA for travel to the UK. Applying for British citizenshelp is not relevant later unless you meant Britisth Passport.IndiMarshall wrote:hi ban.s in case if mother has Indian citizenship.. can she follow the process that Amber said and come to UK and apply for British citizenship ?ban.s wrote:Amber - as both parents are British, the child can't claim Indian citizenship

In India this period is lot better than applying for british passport.. as I heard it takes 4 months and chances of more rejections..Amber wrote:A CoE is usually 4-6 weeks.

So I am clear - As we both are british citizens (via naturalisation) with british passports the only way my new born can enter into UK is through applying british passport from India??
As mentioned by Indimarshall it is true that applying british passport in India is both time consuming and equally stressful and there is no guarantee that we can get one.
What options does my baby have to enter into UK other than via British Passport?
Thanks guys
