I am an Irish citizen. My daughter was born in the states. She needs a certificate of citizenship in order to obtain an Irish passport. To get the certificate of citizenship, her birth needs to be registered in the foreign births registry. As I said before, contact your nearest consulate/embassy and request an fb1b form which is the form for registering a foreign birth on behalf of a minor.
