This page explains how a child born in the United Kingdom whose parents
were not British citizens or settled in the United Kingdom at the time of the child's birth can meet the requirements to be registered as a British citizen.
Section 1(3) applications - children born in the United Kingdom to parents who are now settled in the United Kingdom
If the child's parent has become settled in the United Kingdom or becomes a British citizen, the child will have an entitlement to register as a British citizen. This registration would be under section 1(3) of the British Nationality Act 1981.
Section 1(4) - children who have lived in the United Kingdom for the first 10 years of their life
The child will have an entitlement to register under section 1(4) of the British Nationality Act 1981 if they were born in the United Kingdom on or after 1 January 1983 and lived in there for the first ten years of their life. Applications under this section of the British Nationality Act 1981 should be made using application form T. You should read can I register as a British citizen if I was born in the United Kingdom on or after 1 January 1983 and lived there up to the age of 10 for details on the requirements you need to meet.
Section 3(1) - illegitimate children of British citizen fathers
Until 1 July 2006 a child could not acquire British citizenship through his or her father if the parents were not married at the time of the birth. If the parents married after the birth, the child may now be considered legitimate.
A child born in the United Kingdom before 1 July 2006 can apply for registration as a British citizen at our discretion if all the following requirements are met:
we are satisfied about the paternity of the child; and
we have the consent of all those with parental responsibility; and
the child would have an automatic claim to British citizenship; or
the child would have an entitlement to register under sections 1(3), 3(2) or 3(5); or
we would normally have registered the child under section 3(1); and
Section 3(1) application - children who do not come under section 1(3) or section 1(4) whose parents are applying for British citizenship
If one or both of the child's parents are applying for British citizenship we may, if we believe it is reasonable under the circumstances, register the child under section 3(1) of the British Nationality Act 1981. We will normally only register the child if:
both parents are granted or already hold British citizenship; or
if one parent holds British citizenship and the other is settled in the United Kingdom.
Section 3(1) applications - children born in the United Kingdom to parents who are not settled in the United Kingdom and are not British citizens
Registration in this category will be at our discretion, if we believe it is reasonable under the circumstances and will be under section 3(1) of the British Nationality Act 1981. There are no formal requirements the child needs to meet providing they are under 18 at the time of application and are of good character if they are over 10 years of age. The application should be accompanied by as much evidence as possible to show us why the child should be registered as a British citizen."
