Applying for your first British passport involves proving your right to British citizenship. The applicant is required to prove his entitlement by presenting documents such as a birth certificate containing the names of parents, at least one of whom was a British citizen at the time of the applicant’s birth, a\u00a0 photocopy of the parents’ passports, a photocopy of the applicant’s previous passport and two pictures. Additional documents will also be required according to the specific circumstances of the application. In any case, the applicant must produce the original documents, which will be returned at the end of the process. In the case of documents in languages other than English, the translation must be certified by an authorized translator.<\/p>\n
