The birth will need to have been registered at the Embassy, or the child's biological father will have to be involved in the process.

Thanks indeed for the information. The birth was not registered at the British Embassy. Is there a time limit for doing this? I mean the child was born a few years ago, so therefore could it be registered now and what would be needed in order to do that, given that the father is not involved? Thanks P.S. No, I do not wish to marry the woman.

If you were born before 1 July 2006 you may not qualify if your parents were not married at the time of your birth.

Thanks very much. In this case, the birth was before July 2006 and the parents were not married. The birth was not registered at the Embassy by the father, unless the mother has done so without the father's presense. I'm not sure if that is possible. It would seem therefore that it is not possible for the child to obtain British Citizenship without the father's involvement.

Could anyone tell me please if it is possible to obtain British Nationality for a Thai child of Thai/British origin without the father's involvement. The British father's name is on the birth certificate. The couple were never married. The child's Thai passport was signed by mother and father. The child has never traveled to Britain. Thanks.
