Add a parent to an existing citizenship, with the relationship papers prepared and filed.
Processing time: Several weeks
São Tomé & Príncipe
Overview
This service adds a parent to an existing São Tomé and Príncipe citizenship. The authority wants papers that show the parent-child relationship, usually a birth record, plus identity papers for the parent.
We prepare the file, lodge it, and follow it until the parent is added or the authority asks for more.
What's included
- A check of the birth record linking parent and child
- Filing the addition with the São Tomé and Príncipe authority
- Follow-up until the parent is added
- A note on a later passport application for the parent
Documents

Process
- Send the birth record and passport scans for the citizen and the parent.
- We prepare the addition and send the quote.

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
Send the paper that connects the names, such as a marriage certificate. We will say if the authority wants anything else.
Usually no. We say so if the authority wants biometrics in person.
You approve the quote before the addition is filed.
