Nationality? 2007/7/10 13:00
Is your son's father Japanese? What is your own nationality? it is hard to give you an answer without this information.

You should contact the Japanese consulate in your country. It could be possible for your child to be considered a Japanese citizen if you have the father documented.

documents required 2007/7/10 14:19
You will need to be able to prove to the authorities in Japan that your son's father is Japanese, which will be difficult if you have no communication with him.

If you can contact the father and get documents that prove that he is Japanese (i.e. the father's birth certificate or a residence document called koseki tohon) then you can most likely start the process of getting citizenship for your son.

If you are not able to get any kind of documents proving that your son's father is Japanese, then the authorities only have your word for it and won't give him citizenship based on this.

Florinda,
I am so shamed to hear that you son's father ran away from you.

But, unless you get married to him and he acknowledges your son as his son, your son cannot get Japanese nationality.

This page tells you what you need to get your son's nationality. You can see this page in Tagalog, too.
