Ofcourse he/she is going to be Irish because one of his/her parents is.jhbmike wrote:Scenario - My great grandfather was born in Ireland and was an Irish citizen, my Mother is Irish through the foreign birth register but was born outside of Ireland.

I have subsequently left Ireland. If we had a baby born outside of Ireland would that child be entitled to Irish citizenship?
the op, as father of the child, is irish himself. the child does not even need to look at his/her grandmother, never mnd great grandfather. the child will be irish.there is no distinction made between naturalised or irish born parents in the act when dealing with childPaperPusher wrote:Are you sure? How many generations of descendants does citizenship pass down to?
The OP's family did not obtain citizenship via marriage, adoption or naturalisation. It was through descent. Different situation - descent is not techincallly naturalisation. Descent is kind of authomaticjhbmike wrote:Thanks for all the responses so far. However I would like to draw youre attention to this website http://www.citizensinformation.ie/en/mo ... scent.html, and in particular this statement - If your parent derived Irish citizenship in another manner, for example, through marriage, adoption or naturalisation, further information can be obtained from your nearest Irish embassy or consulate.
I know that if I have a child born in Ireland that yes the child is definatly entitled straight away to Irish citizenship. However the child will not be born in Ireland. Does this pose a different set of rules???????[/u]
Hi 9j9jeirean wrote:Hi jhbmike,
If it's not going to be too much hazel, why not arrange for your wife to come back to Ireland and have the baby. That way you can be sure that any potential snag would be avoided.
Btw, I didn't realize you've left Ireland. Hope it's a lot 'sunnier' wherever you are. Have a nice day mate.

My family ie Mother didnt get her citizenship through naturalisation, she got it through the FBR. However I obtained my citizenship through naturalisation on the basis of descent which meant that the minister waived the time period.walrusgumble wrote:The OP's family did not obtain citizenship via marriage, adoption or naturalisation.

Or have the baby born in Northern Ireland and be automatically an Irish citizen and a British citizen..9jeirean wrote:If it's not going to be too much hazel, why not arrange for your wife to come back to Ireland and have the baby. That way you can be sure that any potential snag would be avoided.
Yes. But you will have to apply to your nearest Irish Embassy or Consulate to apply for Foreign Births Registration. You can pass your Irish Citizenship on to any children that you have outside of the island of Ireland via the FBR process.jhbmike wrote:Scenario - My great grandfather was born in Ireland and was an Irish citizen, my Mother is Irish through the foreign birth register but was born outside of Ireland.

Spoke to the Irish consulate in Las palmas today and they confirmed this to be correct.doesnotcompute wrote:Yes.

Yes, you would have to register your baby's birth with the Citizenship section of the Irish Embassy in London.HSE wrote:Dear Jhb,
wel llet me put similar kind of scenario but still would like to clarify.
my and mrs are irish via naturalisation and if some one had a baby born in uk then what will be the implications.
will we have to register with foreign birth register in the irish embassy ?
whats people opinion about it
My understanding of it is that you would have to register with the FBR. Baby will become Irish from the date of registration, not from date of birth.HSE wrote:Dear Jhb,
