Citizenship & Identity Doccuments

This section of the page is dedicated to help members of the family claim their Irish citizenship.

1st Generation: To get Irish citizenship as a first generation british citizen, all you will need is your birth certificate and the birth and death certificate of the original immigrant.

2nd Generation: To get Irish citizenship as a second generation british citizen, you will need your birth certificate, your parent's birth certificate (the one where Irish descent is claimed) and the birth and death certificate of the original immigrant.

3rd Generation - Note this is not automatic or guaranteed unless your parent was registered in the FBR BEFORE you were born: To get Irish citizenship as a third generation british citizen, the main route is applying via citizen by association. In theory, it is possible. But in practice, it is  highly unlikely to gain citizenship this way. You will need your birth certificate, your parent's birth certificate (the one where Irish descent is claimed), your grandparent's birth certificate (the one where Irish descent is claimed) and the birth and death certificate of the original immigrant. Along with this, a points system is in place to apply a minimum amount of points is required for the application to be considered.

This section of the page is dedicated to help members of the family obtain their Romani Identity documents.

-- Unlike the Irish section, this is neither a citizenship nor guaranteed --

Applications for a Romani Passport are generally made by sending an email enquiry to the general secretary or the International Romany Union parliament speaker. The main way to obtain one is via a family tree with additional documentation from credible sources. 

Applicants are judged on a case by case basis and just because someone in your nuclear family has a passport, you will not necessarily be able to acquire one.

Prices are not fixed and may vary. prices may be given in differing currencies; Euro, Złoty ect.

Please note that this is an identity document rather than a national passport.

For an example of an application, please see the apply page.
