How can my daughter geht British citizenship?

What if I marry my the mother (my girlfriend) in 2008? Will my daughter get British citizenship automatically?

Thanks for your help!

hi welcome to the forum,

you can check the british embassy manila for the requirements of your daughter to acquired british citizenship. It's a lot of work and expensive but it will be worth everything, but i think you really need to discuss it with your gf, coz if your child become a british citizen, your daughter will not be allowed to stay in the phils for a longer period of time unless she will have dual citizenship. but thats just my opinion, the right thing to do is visit the british embassy website and you can e-mail them your concerns

good luck
