Just because he does not posess a Uk birth certificate should not prevent him becoming British. My son only has a Phils Birth Cert, and we got his passport with no problems. We were told was that we could apply for a British cert at the embassy, but it had no extra weight behind it and the cost of it was not worth it, there was no point.

Hello Steve.r
I have son 5 months old now born here in the Philippines and i am married to his father a british citizen. Wer'e planning to go to manila by next week to apply our son's british birth cert and british passport. I have gathered all the requirements need but there's one requirement that i need more information about the Home Office documents for Philippine nationals who have become British Citizens.
I hope you can give me information about it. thank you.
Have you filled out and got all the required papers for the C2 form? The part you have highlighted is for Philippine nationals who have become British Nationals, you have not, (as you have not indicated this) so you dont have to worry about that bit.
Just make sure you have all the information needed for the C2 form.
Here are the forms and papers needed (taken from another of my posts)
This is the C2 form, http://centralcontent.fco.gov.uk/res...fs/form-c2.pdf
