Your local FRRO/FRO will issue exit permit so contact them in the first instance. The exit permit is normally issued 2/3 days prior to departure - passport, temp residence permit (if any), birth certificate, confirmed dep ticket, proof of address are key requirements.

Thanks for your reply, it seems applying for British passport and getting exit permit is going to be a long process.

if i apply for Indian passport for the baby and get visa to come to UK will be quicker right, i can apply for British passport once baby comes to UK.

i wonder what sort of we should apply for the baby? have you got any idea?

[ban.s]

what are the nationality of the parents? Both british or one british other indian?

[reddy009]

I'm British via naturalisation and my wife is on ILR.

[ban.s]

then Indian passport and CoE RoA may be quicker option.

[reddy009]

What is CoE RoA option? Could you please give me detailed info?

[ban.s]

Please take a look at the link in above post.

[reddy009]

Thank you.
do you know how long will it take the process by any chance?

[ban.s]

CoE RoA usually takes 4-6 weeks

[reddy009]

Thank you.

I dont think i am eligible to apply ROC for my child, has anyone got idea?

[ban.s]

why do you think so?

[reddy009]

i am british citizen based on Naturalisation, got british passport recently.

[ban.s]

that'll make the child british citizen (by descent) and hence qualify for right of abode.

the is indian citizen by birth - as mother is indian - hence eligible for indian passport.

so either you apply british passport for the child or CoE RoA on Indian passport.

[reddy009]

do you know any one applied in my situation?

[ban.s]

applied for...indian passport? or british passport or CoE ROA?

[reddy009]

right of abode?

[ban.s]

this child is british by birth and has right of abode to the UK
check the link i posted earlier - it will explain the application process to obtain certificate of entitlement confirming the right of abode.

have you got indian pp for the child?

Thanks for the information,

Aslong as husband was legally settled in the uk (ilr) at the birth of child and now is naturalised you can apply for right of abode

I applied last month in Pakistan and it came in 8 days! I am british by birth though

Can someone help please.

I gathered from elsewhere that if you are traveling back to UK within 1 month of new passport, then no need to apply at FRRO. Local SP (police ) have right to stamp it.

Is this correct?

[reddy009]

I have been told the same when i called chennai FRRO office.

did you get the passport?

[darsh24]

did you get the passport?

I have been called for interview on 21st April.

I guess, passport will come shortly after that as it happens in UK. I am planning to travel back to UK as soon as I get the passport.
