Travelling to using two passports where one is not ok with dual citizenship [duplicate] - Two Teenage Girls Laying on Grass and Playing Telephone Call Using Paper Cups on String

I have two passports where one of them is not OK with with dual citizenship. As suggested by previous questions posed that I should fly to a neutral country - "C" which does not need visa as transit and then fly into the single citizenship country -"B" -entering using B passport.

However on my return to A (dual citizenship) country via the neutral country using my A passport, would it not be strange not to have an B country exit stamp on the A passport especially you just flew out from B country? (As you enter and leave your (single citizenship) B country using its own passport) Would the neutral country's immigration question this and report to your B country?



Best Answer

In general you it's highly advisable to enter and leave a country on the same passport. Switching passports can be a bit of a chore depending on the actual entry and exit procedures and how much information the airlines (if you are flying) need to collect and transmit to the authorities.

I recently flew on a multi-country trip and switched passports on the leg from Germany to South Korea, i.e. I left Germany on one passport and entered South Korea on a different one. Lufthansa actually needed to know about this and collected the information accordingly. However, they were apparently used to doing this, so in this case, it was no problem.
