What are the requirements for Catholic baptism?

Answer:

If parents wish to have their child (either infant or minor charge) they, themselves, must be practicing Catholics [if one of the parties are not Catholic, there is noobligation on their part to attend Mass.]

They must also promise to raise and educate their child in the way of the Church.

They must have received the Sacrament of Confirmation

Their marriage must be a valid marriage, recognized by the Catholic Church.

[[NOTE: Only one Godparent is required to be (a practicing) Catholic. The other individual must be a baptized, "Trinitarian" Christian ]]

If an Adult wishes to be Baptised they must go through a process called the Rite of Christian Initiation. RCIA.
