    hi ross,

    documents from U.K. need not to be original, it can be photocopy or emailed to u. about your passport change it to your married name while u are in Philippines thats less hassle and cheaper. I presumed that all kids are of your husband, i read thread here that u can apply british passport right away...

    Yeah,if the father of your 3 kids is your British husband now,you can apply your kids a British passport at the british embassy,on that case you dont need to pay for their shocking less than 50 thousand pesos visa fee like us,and yes renew your passport now using your married name

    What i mean about the 50,000 pesos is about the visa fee,(settlement)because if they had British passport of course you don't need to pay for their visa fee w/c cost less than 50k i guess you need to bring them at the British Embassy located in Taguig, and along w/ their original birth certificate and your marriage contract ,all the documents must be original

    Now i wonder if they also need Philippine passport,just keep in touch here and when you wake up,expect loads of reply from your thread,i bet all your queries will be answered

    Good luck Ross

    thats 50,000php for each child

    so get them registered at the british embassy and apply for a passport for each of them, i don't know the cost but i would have thought it should be similar to the cost of applying for a childs passport in the uk, about 3,500 php each.

    also it saves a lot of hassle if you get them passports now and while your there. so give the embassy a call find out what you need to take with you, as mrs.jmajor has already said, i think you will need their birth certs, your husbands passport, marriage cert, and maybe yours and your hubby birth certs.

    Hi Ross i think the best advice i can give you since your passport expired already maybe its best if you have it ammended you just need to attend the cfo seminar first so you can ammend it they require it if your married to a foreign national..

    Id like to share also my experience on my daughters registration cause she got her british passport and birth certificate at the same time just last year when me and my husband applied for it.

    Firstly we went to the embassy to get an application form for our childs registration then they will give you a list of requirements that you will be needing to submit and at the same time the fee you need to pay.

    Hello Ross,

    I just want to share something in you,I got married last May 2008 to a British citizen and gave birth here in the Philippines last July 2008.I applied a British passport for my daughter last Nov 2008 at the consular office in Manila Mckinley hills taguig to where the Embassy is located, it only took me 10 working days from the day I applied then I got it then. At the moment I am waiting for my spouse visa result. I never pay any visa fee for my daughter cos she has a British passport now but I paid 6.840 last Nov as the pound rate was higher and I think this year they will change it into 75 pesos per pound so it will be lesser then. Well If ever you need some help or some questions or any ideas, you can email me then at this address,praise_gray@yahoo.com cos I can help you whatever I can do. Hope your daughter's passport will be sorted soon as possible. Anyway where are you right now? Still in Philippines or in United Kingdom?

    About your passport, if it's already expired, you can renew it and you can use your hubby's family name if you are legally married .All they will be going to ask you is the completed passport form and then your marriage contract from NSO together with your latest picture with a royal blue background..


    Also about the spouse visa requirements, it's easy, just provide whatever you can which will help you with your visa application. If your husband was divorced, they will need his original divorced paper, his original birth certificate His xerox current passport with stamps. Your marriage contract from NSO.Chat conversations,and etc. Your kids birth certificate from NSO. Your original birth certificate , payslips of your husband, bank statements for at least 6 months, pics together and the family, visa fee of course but to remind you effective Jan 5th 2009 the visa fee gone down to 75 pesos so multiply it to 515 pounds then but they wont accept cash, u will need to purchase a managers check payable to the british embassy manila. Then accomodation. Take pictures of the interior and exterior of the house. And so on. Just email me then if you like. Thanks and good luck on your application. God bless us all.

    As Miayela said ,you need to register your kids at the British embassy, that 14,345 including passport already,now u have the NSO birth certificate,then complete all the Doc of what rusty put in list,,and for sure collecting all the documents,will take u long time,how can i contact you then ? to refer that place ,while sorting your doc.

    you can apply your kids passport all by yourself even your hubby wasn't here, just make sure all information like his passport,birth certificate,your marriage cert etc....etc...

    oppsss need to edit this thread of mine as i saw mia's post that passport is separate fee,then a total of 20k then,pheww

    Hi Ross the fee for your childs passport is separate from the registration fee of your child.. You have to register your children as british citizen first before getting there passport but you can apply for both at the same time, the 14k is the cost for just the registration fee and then the passport is 6k..

    Actually i still have the reciept..

    If you want to know the current price about the registration of your child you could email the consular section at the british embassy at CONS-Manila@fco.gov.uk..

    And you can check at there website thru http://ukinthephilippines.fco.gov.uk...register-birth so you would know what would be the requirements and the fee for your childs registration and passport. I hope this helps..

    it states A Consular Birth Registration is not a legal requirement , but it is recommended.

    recommended you do, but you don't have, so depending on how much money you have.. good point is you get a British style birth cert.

    As Joe says, the benifit is that you gat a British style birth certificate.

    When I applied on December 2, the rate was £1=78PHP
    passport was 5,928
    registration was 11,778 (2 fees 4,602 & 7,176)

    All the requirements are as I listed previously, i would suggest you contact the embassy regarding what can be accepted as copies and what originals are needed.

    There is an office in Cebu if thats easier thwn going to Manila.

    When we applied in November 2007 it was a requirement to register our daughter as a british citizen before being able to get a british passport, but as i said we were able to apply for both at the same time.

    The best thing for you to do is to contact the british embassy and ask for the requirements to clear up all your queries..
