Citizenship ceremonies in Leicester
This page is for people becoming British citizens in Leicester. You email the council after your Home Office letter. Ceremonies are held in person at the Town Hall.
How you book
Once you have the Home Office invitation letter, send the council an email. Include your name, your Home Office reference, a phone number, and your choice of oath or affirmation. A reply can take up to 10 working days. You get a date when your certificate reaches the council, and you must attend within 3 months.

What happens at the ceremony
You make the oath or the affirmation of allegiance to the King, then the pledge to the United Kingdom. At the end you receive your certificate of British citizenship and a welcome pack. You become a British citizen at the ceremony, not before.
