IMPORTANT INFORMATION

As of February 1, 2008, all appointments for passports and reports of birth abroad (CRBAs) at U.S. Consulate General Tijuana must be made online.  Consulate staff will no longer make appointments by phone or in person.  We are making this change in order to make staff available for more appointments each day, which will shorten the time required to process passports and CRBAs.

Acquisition Of U.S. Citizenship By Children Born Abroad

A child born overseas to two U.S. citizen parents acquires U.S. citizenship at birth. Even if only one parent is a U.S. citizen, the child may still acquire U.S. citizenship if the U.S. citizen parent has fulfilled certain requirements prior to the birth of his or her child.
