PSSSSTTTTT http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/br...yingterritory/ This page will help you decide whether you are a British citizen, if you were born in the UK or a qualifying territory. The qualifying territories are all the British overseas territories, except the Sovereign base areas of Akrotiri and Dhekelia (in Cyprus). If you were born in the UK before 1 January 1983 If you were born in the UK before 1 January 1983, you are almost certainly a British citizen. The only exception is if you were born to certain diplomatic staff of foreign missions who had diplomatic immunity. If you were born in the UK on or after 1 January 1983 If you were born in the UK on or after 1 January 1983, you are a British citizen if at the time of your birth one of your parents was: - a British citizen; or - legally settled in the UK.
