British/Canadian dual citizenship

[smg]

Hi,

I am Canadian (born 1977) with British parents and am starting to look at dual-citizenship as we will be moving to Europe for a few years.

My mother told me that when I was a baby she listed me on her British passport (was required to provide my birth cert. and such) - does anyone know if this means I am already registered? or would I still have to go through the registration process?

Any advice would be appreciated!

Thanks

All the answers are in this thread further up. Also this: http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/briti ... passports/

Basically you're a British citizen by descent, you just need to provide the relevant evidence with your passport application. The problem is that the new biometric/NIR/RFID passports require you to physically go to an interview if it's your first application. In Ottawa, unless something changed lately.
