Does anything stop identical twins from traveling on each other's passports?
Assuming two identical twins want to swap their passports (e.g. to travel using the other guy's visa or to make visa runs easier) - would there be anything to stop them?
Some visas do record the applicant's fingerprints but would you really be banned from entering if just the fingerprints mismatch?
Best Answer
There is a good chance of being deported/removed if your fingerprints don't match. You will certainly be scrutinized more until they can confirm (based on a balance of probabilities) you are who you say you are.
Answer is based on experience. A family member's fingerprints couldn't be confirmed on one trip to the UK. They gave her a paper telling her they were deciding whether to let her enter or not.
I think the UK needs to upgrade their fingerprint machines. On many occasions it takes several tries until the fingerprints match.

Can Identical twins be attracted to each other?
Not only that, but 40 per cent of twins actually dislike their sibling's mate.
