Check if you can become a British citizen
There are different ways to apply for British citizenship (or ‘naturalisation’) based on your circumstances.

If you’re eligible in more than one way you can choose which way to apply.

If you’ve applied for citizenship, you’ll need permission to stay in the UK until you’re granted citizenship. Your permission needs to last until you have had your citizenship ceremony.

If you have indefinite leave to remain (ILR) or settled or pre-settled status under the EU Settlement Scheme, this counts as permission to stay.

Eligibility and fees
You can apply for citizenship if you’ve lived in the UK for 5 years and have had one of the following for 12 months:

indefinite leave to remain in the UK
‘settled status’ (also known as ‘indefinite leave to remain under the EU Settlement Scheme’)
indefinite leave to enter the UK (permission to move to the UK permanently from abroad)

You must also:

be over 18
prove you were in the UK exactly 5 years before the day the Home Office receives your application
prove your knowledge of English, Welsh or Scottish Gaelic
have passed the life in the UK test
intend to continue living in the UK
be of good character - read the naturalisation guidance
Residency requirements
You must have lived in the UK for at least 5 years before the date of your application. You also should not have broken any UK immigration laws.
Time you’ve spent outside the UK
You should not have:

spent more than 450 days outside the UK during the 5 years before your application
spent more than 90 days outside the UK in the last 12 months
broken any UK immigration laws (for example living illegally in the UK)
You may have lost your indefinite leave to remain or enter if you’ve been away from the UK for:

more than 2 years at any time since you got it (you’ll need to apply for a Returning Resident visa)
more than 5 years if you have settled status
more than 4 years if you are a Swiss citizen, or the family member of a Swiss citizen, and you have settled status
