I am converting to Singaporean and need to renounce my British Citizenship. Do I just go to the British High Commission in Singapore to do it? How long would the process take?
Thanks!

How to renounce British citizenship in Singapore
Re: How to renounce British citizenship in Singapore
There's a specific form and process as a (soon to be former) senator in Australia - the right idiot Malcom Roberts has found out. I think you actually need to liase with the home office in old blighty itself.tjendra wrote:I am converting to Singaporean and need to renounce my British Citizenship.

I not lawyer/teacher/CPA.
You've been arrested? Law Society of Singapore can provide referrals.
You want an International School job? School website or http://www.ISS.edu
Your rugrat needs a School? Avoid for profit schools
You need Tax advice? Ask a CPA
You ran away without doing NS? Shame on you!

Re: How to renounce British citizenship in Singapore
PNGMK is correct, you need to fill in a form and send it to the UK (assuming you're not from the Isle of Man, Channel Islands or British Overseas Territories) the following link gives you the steps to follow and a link to the form that needs completing: https://www.gov.uk/renounce-british-nationality

You've got it completely backwards. He wants to renounce his BRITISH citizenship.AuroraUsa wrote:Go to a Singapore embassy in London and submit the renunciation of Singapore citizenship form. If you can’t find a relevant version on the link you can ask the embassy directly for the form.tjendra wrote:I am converting to Singaporean and need to renounce my British Citizenship.

Your kids will probably be eligible to renounce the Singapore citizenship on the grounds that he already possesses Danish citizenship.
If your motive in doing this is to avoid pointless conscription recalls from overseas, be sure to check with the embassy if this will result in exemption from National Service, or whether you need to fill in additional forms.
Also, do this as early as possible.
Make sure your kids are also aware of the consequences of renouncing the citizenship before you take any action. With the current sociopolitical climate, it is unlikely he can get Singapore citizenship again in future should he give it up now.
