Settlement, Naturalization and British Citizenship
British nationality law is extremely complicated, and there are several routes by which people may become British. The most common of these is the process of naturalization.
The criteria to be met before naturalization is granted are that the applicant must:
- Be over 18 years of age.
- Meet the 'residence requirements' - that is, have been resident in the UK for a minimum of 5 years, unless the application is on the basis of marriage to a UK citizen, in which case a minimum of 3 years is required
- Have no time limit on their stay in the UK.
- Be of good character.
- Have sufficient knowledge of English, Welsh or Scottish Gaelic and have sufficient knowledge of life in the UK.
In addition to these requirements, which all applicants for naturalization must meet, all applicants except those applying on the basis of their marriage to a British citizen must also show that they intend to live permanently in the UK, and to have their main home here.
If naturalization is granted applicants will have to attend a citizenship ceremony, usually held by the local authority, where an oath of allegiance or affirmation of allegiance to the Queen will have to be taken, and a pledge of loyalty to the UK given, before the process of becoming a British citizen is complete.
Minors - that is, anyone who is below the age of 18 - are not naturalised, but can be registered as British citizens, either at the same time as their parents are naturalised, or when their parents have settled status in the UK.
