The online application for the Consular Report of Birth Abroad (CRBA) will allow parents to fill out an application online, upload required documents, and submit an online payment of $100 prior to the in-person interview.

Please read through the information pages below to help ensure you qualify and have all of the required documentation ready.

Once you have familiarized yourself with these, create a MyTravelGov account using the link below to get started on your CRBA application and make your online payment.

MyTravelGov is a secure, encrypted portal.  Once you complete the online application and submit your payment, you will be directed to schedule your appointment.

Please schedule your appointment a minimum of 5 working days after the date of submission to allow payment processing to be completed.  If your payment hasn’t cleared before your interview, we will not be able to proceed with your interview.  Your child, and generally both parents, must attend the interview.
