Apply for if you have indefinite leave to remain or ' '.
Eligibility and fees
You can apply for citizenship if you’ve lived in the UK for 5 years and have had one of the following for 12 months:
indefinite leave to remain in the UK
‘settled status’ (also known as ‘indefinite leave to remain under the EU Settlement Scheme’)
indefinite leave to enter the UK (permission to move to the UK permanently from abroad)
From 1 January 2021, if you had permanent residence status before you got settled status, you can count that time towards the 12 months. You do not need a permanent residence card to prove your permanent residence status.
You will not need to wait 12 months to apply if you’re married to a British citizen.
You must also:
be over 18
prove you were in the UK exactly 5 years before the day the Home Office receives your application
prove your knowledge of English, Welsh or Scottish Gaelic
have passed the life in the UK test
intend to continue living in the UK
be of good character - read the naturalisation guidance
Residency requirements
You must have lived in the UK for at least 5 years before the date of your application.
You cannot include any time spent in the UK when you’re exempt from immigration control as a:
diplomat
member of a diplomat’s staff or household
member of visiting armed forces
Time you’ve spent outside the UK
You should not have:
spent more than 450 days outside the UK during the 5 years before your application
spent more than 90 days outside the UK in the last 12 months
broken any UK immigration laws (for example living illegally in the UK)
You may have lost your indefinite leave to remain or enter if you’ve been away from the UK for:
more than 2 years at any time since you got it (you’ll need to apply for a Returning Resident visa)
more than 5 years if you have settled status
more than 4 years if you are a Swiss citizen, or the family member of a Swiss citizen, and you have settled status
This is one way to apply for British citizenship. Check if you’re eligible another way.
When to apply
You must have been physically present in the UK exactly 5 years before the Home Office receives your application. Your application may be rejected if you cannot prove this.
Example
If the Home Office receives your application on 20 June 2022, but you left the UK on 10 June 2017 and returned to the UK on 25 June 2017, you will not qualify. You’ll need to wait until 24 June 2022 to apply.
The date the Home Office receives your application depends on how you apply. If you apply online, your application will be received on the same day. It will take longer if you apply by post.
How much it costs
It costs £1,330 to apply.
You must also pay £19.20 to have your biometric information (fingerprints and a photo) taken. You’ll be told how to do this after you’ve applied.
