A native born citizen is a person who was born a citizen of a certain country by virtue of the laws of that country . For example, I am a native born citizen of the United States because I was born a United States Citizen. This term shouldn't be confused with natural born citizen, which a legal term unique to the United States Constitution.

Addendum: In the U.S., native born is a subset of natural born. All native borns are natural born but not all all natural borns are native born. Anyone born in the U.S. (save for children born to foreign diplomats or to foreign armed service members) are native born, and consequently natural born.

As native born requires being born within the country, in this case the U.S., a child born to citizen parents abroad is still natural born, but not native born.
