I am British. My wife is Russian/British. Our child was born in London. The birth was reported to the Russian Embassy in London, which translated the birth certificate. I then had an apostille attached. The Russian Embassy then included my child in my wife's international passport.
Problem is, my wife's passport is expiring and they refuse to include my child in her new one, or issue him his own, arguing he isn't Russian since he was born abroad. Does anyone have any advice?
We live in Moscow. My wife is registered in Taganka. Can anyone tell us what we need to produce, and where we need to go, to get the passport issued? The British Embassy has not been any help, sending us to our local passport office. They simply refuse to issue the passport!! Others out there must be in the same situation.
