Hi I have an Irish passport along with a British passport my wife only has a British passport entering an eu country on my Irish passport can my wife enter with me using my status through the faster lane
This is useful info and you have clearly explained how to travel in your case - well done! …my case is unique, though. I’m a South African and Australian citizen, but am also an Indian Overseas citizen and a US permanent resident/green card holder. So I live in the States, if I travel to Canada or Mexico I show them my US green card. If I’m travelling anywhere else e.g., Asia or Europe I show them my Aussie passport - except in India where I show them my Indian Overseas citizenship. When leaving India, I show them my Australian passport if I’m going to Australia or anywhere else in the world - except the US/Canada/Mexico or South Africa, in which case I show them my green card or my South African passport. When I travel direct to South Africa I show them my South African passport for entry, although the document I use at the country of departure varies e.g., if I’m going to South Africa from Australia I show my Aussie passport at Sydney and my South African one at Jo’burg. My children are Australians, South Africans, Indian Overseas citizens plus US citizens, so things are similar for them. I chose to not have a US passport. My wife is an Indian Citizen with a US green card/Permanent Residency and Australian PR/permanent residency. I guess we’re just not a simple family 😄
Btw. the word "coach" comes from the settlement of Kocs, Hungary being a very famous coach manufacture center inventing the steel spring as a suspension, which spread through europen countries via medieval kings' promotion of the vehicle. Till this day even in Hungary we call four wheeled vehicles "kocsi" as a word meaning "originating from Kocs". Like in the US they called the ballpoint pen a "biro" as László Bíró (hungarian journalist) invented the best working ballpoint mechanism with ink chemistry that could be used by millions as an everyday drop-free, smudge free writing utility.
I have dual Dutch and British nationality. I wanted to say that if you travel outside the EU another passport is also useful. I paid $80 for an Indian tourist visa using my Dutch passport when I went to India but my partner paid $100 on his British passport. I left the UK on my British passport and entered India on my Dutch one.
Thank you for the explanation! Very useful information! I have a question: When you book the flight and you have to include your passport details, how do you proceed? Let's use the same example; going to Italy from the UK. Do I introduce the details from my British passport, or my EU one? And the same for return?
When I went to Italy, I used my Italian passport details to book the tickets. When boarding the plane and when arriving in Italy I showed my Italian passport. When I returned to England I used my Italian passport in the airport, then switched to my English passport to show when boarding the plane to England and when I was in England. They only care that the name on the boarding pass matches the passport, that's it. If you don't want stamps then use the EU passport when departing England and while in the EU. Then English one only when you get on the plane to England. They only care that you can legally enter the country you are going to.
Always use the one that matches the citizenship if one has a passport issued by their respective authorities; exactly like the video says. If a visa isn't needed and the destination isn't of the citizenship of either one, use whichever of one's preference and be consistent about it; always use the same one that was used to enter when exiting. If a visa is needed for one of them, *always* use the passport that doesn't need a visa. If one can avoid it, don't bring the other passport(s). If a visa is needed for all of them, *always* use the one with the visa on it and never even bring up the fact one is a citizen of more than one place! Same as above, don't bring any other passport(s) if they aren't needed.
Great useful video. I only question when you said to always show your UK passport at the boarding gate when you are flying back to the UK. This assumes you entered your UK passport details in the APIS before you printed your ticket, as this is the ID number that is stored on the airline's system (and printed on your ticket) and should match the ID you are using at the gate.
@@jerryjones1555 APIS is the Advance Passenger Information System where you enter your ID details before your flight. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advance_Passenger_Information_System
Despite being born in Ireland and my dad being an Irish passport holder (easy for him to just show that and get in everywhere 😂), I (like my mother) am a dual British-French passport holder. I once entered Germany on my French one and tried to leave on my British one (which had no stamp, like you’d expect it to) so the border guard thought I was an illegal immigrant for a sec and I almost got into trouble 😅😂
I have an unusual situation . I have a UK and Maltese passport, in different names . The UK do not allow this, unless you prove exceptional reasons . In my UK passport it states i have a Maltese passport with my different name. My question is, I have booked a trip to Seville, Spain and did it on my UK passport. So leaving i will use my UK passport and when entering Spain use my EU passport. When leaving I will produce my UK passport at check in ." This is the pat i am a bit worried about!! " At boarder control i will then show my EU passport and then switch again to UK passport to board plane and enter the UK. Is this OK . If yes my concern is the two different names
Thanks for this. I have a question, if I may: assuming you were to utilise the same process for your OB journey that you did for your RTN journey, this would surely mean that, much like you did in a vise-versa scenario coming back from IT-UK, you/one would be able to use their UK passport on leaving the UK, but simply show their EU passport at passport control on the other/EU/Italian side..... which would also prevent any stamps from appearing in the UK passport. My other query, which is pretty much interlinked, is: if you use your Italian passport to exit the UK, and, there is no border stamp in the Italian passport from UK passport control - isn't this the same conundrum as having "only 1 stamp", or worse, none, and, wouldn't this be automatically suspicious to a border control agent? Ie: how did the EU passport holder enter the UK to start with? Or, is it that they don't care, because you're leaving the UK, and, Britain being what it is, they're more relaxed about people leaving? Many thanks in advance for your help on this.
UK border control don't systematically check your passport and stamp it when you leave. They don't care about your immigration status in the UK, if you have an EU passport they have to let you into the EU
Thanks good question. Just a bit of Creosote, Which is derived from the distillation of tar from wood or coal and is used as a wood preservative. Used to protect wood used outdoors against termites, fungi, mites and other pests.
I've just bought a premade campervan and it's lined in ugly grey carpet and I was wondering if it might be possible to put a thin layer of cork over the top. Haven't yet worked out how to attach it. Are you still happy with your choice?
Hello, I am a Portuguese with a Portuguese passport. I entered the UK in August, because now the UK has left the EU🇪🇺, the theory is that the British authorities will stamp our passports when we enter the UK with EU passports. And indicate the period of stay, but after I entered the country, I found that my Portuguese passport was the same as before when the UK had not left the EU🇪🇺. My Portuguese passport did not have a stamp and period of stay, but the problem came again, my A British friend traveled to Greece last month, and his British passport had been stamped by the Greek Immigration Bureau, indicating that he could only stay for ninety days. People with British passports had to queue up to go through customs through another channel, and I had a Portuguese passport in August. When I went to the UK, I went through the same channel as the British.
