Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what documentation is required to obtain a UK passport for people born in the Irish Republic who are living in Northern Ireland.

His Majesty’s Passport Office must satisfactorily complete its checks upon an applicant’s nationality, identity, and eligibility before a passport can be issued, and will request additional evidence as necessary to support the completion of these checks.

The evidence required will change depending upon individual circumstances, and whether it is an application for a first passport or a renewal. Further information about the information needed when applying for a first passport can be found at: https://www.gov.uk/apply-first-adult-passport/what-documents-you-need-to-apply
