  • Children and Their Rights to British Citizenship
    EEA and Swiss national Children and their rights to British citizenship April 2019 Please note: The information set out here does not cover all the circumstances in which a child born to a European Economic Area (EEA) or Swiss national may become a British citizen. Some cases may be complex and need detailed evidence. This may include expert evidence. It is therefore very important to get advice from a citizenship law specialist. An explanation of some of the legal words used in this leaflet is given in the glossary at the end. 3 Contents Foreword 4 Is your child born in the UK a British citizen? 5 Can your child born in the UK become a British citizen? 6 Is your child not born in the UK a British citizen? 8 Flowchart: Is your child a British citizen? 10 General points 11 Glossary 13 4 Foreword The UK is set to leave the European Union (EU). The right of free movement for people under EU law will not continue to operate in the same way if and when the UK leaves the EU. This means that EEA and Swiss nationals in the UK and their children should consider if they need to take steps to protect their rights and continue living here. There are various ways of doing this. The focus of this leaflet is British citizenship rights. Many children of EEA and Swiss nationals may already be British citizens or may have a right to register as a British citizen even though they and their parents/carers may not realise it.
