I am not sure , how about your baby's GP (pediatrician) or your OB GYne?( because they were the one who were there when you gave birth.

I just know my baby pedia for 1 year and thats when my baby was borm in the application it says atleast 2 years...

i read in passport application about who will be countersigned it says teacher is accepted and do have passport, i know one and she was my teacher before when i was in high school and she is a head master or school head or school principal...

[hellersarah]

Sorry , that is why i said ''I am not sure''...hang on for awhile , lets hope some forum members who has done this recently can answer your queries.

your baby's doctor would be alright...they need counter signatories just to prove that the photo you are going to submit is the true likeness of the applicant. I applied my baby's british passport when he was 1 1/2 years old and his pediatrician signed it. Never had a problem. I believed his pediatrician is the best person to sign it since he/she knows your baby since born.

[hellersarah]

hi thank you for the advice it really helps me. i went to my baby pedia but i read in the website the countersignatory must know you atleast 2 years, i just knew my baby pedia for 1 year since were living in the village not in the city maybe its a big question on our address, but i read some post in website school head is accepted plus i had her passport photocopy.... but i had here a signature of my baby pedia i download another copy of c2 just in case...

Hello sarah, what i did with that portion is i asked my neighbor for more that 15 years already to countersignatory and she is a policewomen. I think your professional neighbor for more than 2 years is ok.

I went to british embassy manila last monday , I apply 1st for my baby birth cert. then after checking the docs and it was okay, they accept my baby application it was great coz the woman incharge to check the docs says its complete so thank God. Then I submit all the docs for my baby british passporr.

[hellersarah]

I just want to put another input here just in case you want to register you child at british embassy manila. There is no bmd 001-007 can be found in there website, only bmd 001-012, just download that form and when you got to the embassy they will give you the bmd 001-007 form..

the fees for passport is 12,540 pesos which is different from their website...

[sunset112]

[hellersarah]

yes, thats all the cost in applying the british birth certificate :-)

your welcome :-) just ask when you have some clarification..
