How do I register my newborn son at the UK embassy in Thailand?

Register the birth with the UK Consulate ...... you will get a Notification of Birth from them... get a few originals... apply for a Uk passport for the baby. At the same time get the baby a Thai passport. A duel national..... it's easy to do

There is no need to register the birth, with the embassy it serves no purpose.

First of all, congratulations! Secondly, I have no idea because I'm not UK. Just wanted to say congrats! Haha

Congratulations

Yes, as

says. Not necessary to register the birth. A translation of the Thai birth certificate will be needed eventually when you apply for the child's UK passport.

The basic story is that you need to get the Thai birth certificate translated into English. After that, it seems like different European countries have different requirements. It seems like the UK is happy with just a translated birth certificate to issue a UK passport as long as you are listed as the father. The full/bigger story is to get the birth certificate legalized first at the Thai Ministry of Foreign Affairs and afterward at your Embassy. This is the recommended procedure as this way will give the best legal status. The Thai MFA has requirements for the translation into English, but you can have it done in the hall of the MFA in about 1-2 hours. You might very well do/need the same with your marriage certificate to prove that your baby is born in marriage.

I had this problem 6 months ago so basically I asked them the same you don't need to register at the UK as baby goes into Thai registrations UK will get updated but if you want a UK passport then there's a difficult process to do

Same question was asked yesterday.
