Overview
This service adds a newborn to an existing São Tomé and Príncipe citizenship. It is for a child born after the citizenship was granted to a parent. The authority will want the birth record and the parent's citizenship papers.
We prepare the file, lodge it, and follow it until the child is recorded. A passport or national card for the child can be quoted once the record is updated.
What's included
- A check of the birth record and the parent's citizenship papers
- Filing the addition with the São Tomé and Príncipe authority
- Follow-up until the child is added
- A note on the passport or card application that can follow

Fees
Price on request
You receive a quote before any filing starts. It separates the CitizenX fee from government charges, courier costs, and legalization. Those extras are added only when they apply, and only after you approve them.
Government and third-party charges are confirmed in the quote when they apply.
Questions
As soon as you have a birth record. Send the hospital notice if the full certificate is still pending.
Usually no. We say so if the authority wants the child present.
You approve the quote before the addition is filed.
