i want my son to have irish passport

lexluther

Hi all, im an Irish National and my baby boy was born in brazil last feb.
Can someone tell me the procedure for acquiring an irish passport for a brazilian national if his father is Irish.? do i just go to the passport office as normal?

Cheers.

Are you resident in Ireland or Brazil? Contact the dfa for the former or the irish consulate in Brazil.

You will need every document imaginable. Birth certs, death certs, marriage certs.

First step is to apply for a Foreign Births Registration to claim Irish citizenship for your child, once that's granted can you apply for a passport.
