Citizenship by Descent Bundle
District Registrar + MFA · Used for Italian jure sanguinis · Irish citizenship by descent · German StAG §5
NYC Legal files for the Citizenship by Descent Bundle at the District Registrar + MFA every business day and pushes the document straight through MFA, Apostille or destination embassy attestation in a single chain.
10+ years and 2,800+ cases supporting naturalisation, renunciation, dual citizenship and PR applications.
Issuance at the District Registrar + MFA takes 14-45 working days with a government fee of ตามเอกสาร. NYC Legal handles the entire request under power of attorney.
The document is then translated into the destination language by a registrar-listed translator, legalised at the MFA, and either Apostilled or attested at the relevant embassy — or filed directly at the destination embassy in Bangkok.
First-pass acceptance at USCIS / UK Home Office / IRCC / Migrationsverket sits at 94-96%.
