For those with dual UK/xxxx Citizenship.

I applied to become Half Swedish, because, Brexit. The bottom half, in case it matters.

So on my Swedish passport etc, it will eventually say Efour, Half Swedish Half/Embarrassed Englishman.
It suddenly occurred to me, do i have to say to the UK passport office I've done this and I'm keeping half my Britishness, the top half, for weak patriotic reasons?

I assume i do have to declare this on a new/future UK passport application or alike?
Any of you got similar?
Aware that GOV.UK will probably answer this in 3 or less clicks but i like typing.
Its funny that because I know so many English people who are embarrassed to be British. I'm half Irish and half American.
 
Dunno why this got bumped but im now a dual national and recently traveled to the UK using my Swedish passport, which didnt work in a single biometric reader... so was a pain in the arse :P

Im still not sure which to use to show to the Russian soldiers when they invade....

Why would you use your Swedish passport when arriving back in the UK :confused: Always use UK passport. When arriving at other countries then sure use whichever one is better.

I imagine you have a Jason Bourne-esq bag with multiple passports, various currencies.
 
I recently went to Germany from the UK for a few days and we got shafted at both ends. :s

On the way out we had to wait in the non-EU citizen queue at passport control which took blooming ages and on the way back we had to wait in the everybody in the same queue queue which took blooming ages.

Thought we'd at least get a British VIP queue with a red carpet in our own airports following Brexit, and maybe a crisp high five and a glass of prosecco.

Traveling with GF so in theory we dont/could not have to split up at the gate, yeah its trivial.

Flying overall is generally a **** experience regardless. Especially leaving and return from UK airports. Always has been. Foreign airports can be good or a complete ****fest just luck of draw. It's been the same well before Brexit.

Best bet is not to fly to busy airports, and check that no other flights are arriving at a similar time to yours.

If you have multiple passports always return entry on the one for that country. No need to declare other citizenships, if the UK wants to know, it will find out.
 
Gatwick South terminal arrivals is the most depressing snake maze of barriers ive ever seen on earth.
 
I feel personally attacked that OP created this thread and excluded the triple nationality owners :(

Not only is this recommended, in some countries it is required by law, such as the US.
