Paternal grandfather born in the UK
My paternal grandfather was born in the UK. He only moved to South Africa when he met my South African grandmother during the 2nd World War. He was a member of the British Army at the time. I was born in South Africa in 1978 - my mother & father were still married at the time.
Both my maternal grandparents held British passports because my grandfather, although born in SA, studied & lived in the UK, and eventually joined the RAF & also fought in WW2. My grandmother (born in SA) obtained her British citizenship by her marriage to my grandfather. Neither my mother nor father ever applied for British citizenship so they both hold SA passports only. Am I eligible to apply for British citizenship through my grandparents? |

Were either of your grandfathers still serving in the military when either of your parents were born?

Is it your intention to move to the UK or simply obtain a British passport for ease of travel?
