Citizenship ceremonies

Citizenship ceremonies are to celebrate the significance of becoming a British citizen and to welcome the new citizen into their community.


If a citizenship ceremony is to take place it must be within 3 months of the applicant being informed that their application for citizenship has been successful.

Standard group ceremonies are held at County Hall in Matlock every 2 months.

Or applicants may choose to have an individual ceremony in either one of the county's approved premises or a register office. Extra fees apply for individual ceremonies.

Prospective citizens should see the Home Office information on citizenship or tel: 01629 533110 or 01629 533111.
