sipidan Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 (edited) Our 4 year old daughter was born and lives in Thailand with a Thai Passport. She also has a British Passport. There are 2 questions online quering her having a second passport. Country of second passport -1-UNITED KINGDOM-BRITISH CITIZEN-GBR 2-UNITED KINGDOM-BRITISH NATIONAL (OVERSEAS)-GBN 3-UNITED KINGDOM-BRITISH OVERSEAS CITIZEN-GBO 4-UNITED KINGDOM-BRITISH OVERSEAS TERRITORIES CITIZEN-GBD We were going to put number 3? But now I'm thinking 2? Question 2- Nationality of passport holder? 1-UNITED KINGDOM-BRITISH CITIZEN-GBR 2-UNITED KINGDOM-BRITISH NATION (OVERSEAS)-GBN 3-UNITED KINGDOM-BRITISH OVERSEAS CITIZEN-GBO 4-UNITED KINGDOM-BRITISH OVERSEAS TERRITORIES CITIZEN-GBD 5-THAILAND Shall we put 5-Thailand? Very confusing:confused: Thanks in advance Edited May 25, 2016 by sipidan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bungo Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 I guess it is up to you whether you call the British or Thai passport the first or second one, in reality I don't believe they are actually ranked. Assuming you are regular British, I would have thought 1) was the correct option for the first question. A "British Overseas" citizenship does not mean British but happens to live overseas, there are some very specific places,e.g. Bermuda, which are designated "British overseas territories".

Very confusing:confused: Thanks in advance This I hope answers Question 2 :wink: DUAL CITIZENSHIP: NOT RECOGNIZED. Exceptions: Child born abroad to Thai parents, who obtains the citizenship of the foreign country of birth, may retain dual citizenship until reaching the age of majority (18). At this point, person must choose which citizenship to retain. Edited May 25, 2016 by sipidan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quinkla Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 Question 1 is definitely British Citizen. The issue of Thailand is a matter for the Thai Government - it is of no concern to the Australian or UK Governments. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
