Clarkkent Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 [quote user="jimbob"] My daughter is 18 soon, we have lived in France for 6 years, we are all english with english passports, my daughters passport is out of date.My question is, Can she apply for a french passport?[/quote]In order to hold a French passport your daughter would require French nationality This means she would have to seek French citizenship by naturalisation. My guess is that your daughter would be restricted in her travel opportunities for quite a long time as her application progresses along its slow bureaucratic journey if she decides to follow the naturalisation route. She can get a UK (not english) passport in days.This subject has been discussed several times on this forum.

Clair Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 As you mention that "we are all english with english passports", i.e.your daughter is British, she cannot apply for a French passport.If /when she acquires French nationality by naturalisation, she can apply for a French passport.Details here.
