Hello All,
I'm having a mental breakdown over this so I'm hoping that somebody will be able to offer me some reassurance! I'm a British citizen who is married to an Algerian and I recently returned to the U.K. from Algeria to give birth to our son. Unfortunately, my husband was unable to accompany me to the U.K. for the birth because he does not hold a U.K. visa. I hope to return to Algeria as soon as possible and have applied for a British passport on behalf of my son. I intend to register his birth at the Algerian Consulate in London, but am desperately worried about the parental authorisation! The website of the Algerian Consulate states that the father must be present at the consulate in order to sign the parental authorisation in the presence of the officer in charge, but this is not possible in our situation, since my husband is in Algeria and is unable to come to the U.K. How can we resolve this? And is a parental authorisation even necessary, given that our son is a British citizen? I am losing my mind over this, fearful that my husband will be unable to see his son because of one document 😢 Any advice or reassurance would be gratefully received!
Thank you!
Parental authorisation - please help!

Where did you marry your husband? In Algeria?
This is an easy way to get a marriage contract, if you don't have one, but it needs to be done in Tunisia and not in Algeria, in Algeria it can take up to 8 months, but in Tunisia just 3 to 4 days.
1- Obtain the certificate of marriage efficiency for the wife
You go to your wife's embassy
For example, I went to the US Embassy and the wife takes with her:

The costs were 35 US dollars)
