The UK government is set to introduce new regulations requiring dual nationals to present a valid British passport or a Certificate of Entitlement for entry into the UK. This change, influenced by the upcoming ETA visa waiver, will end the current practice that allows dual nationals to choose which passport to use for travel. Obtaining a Certificate of Entitlement is costly at £550 and involves significant wait times and in-person visits, raising concerns among those who may not possess a current UK passport. Details regarding the impact on British-Irish dual nationals remain unclear.
The introduction of new rules by the UK government will require dual nationals to use a UK passport or purchase a £550 Certificate of Entitlement upon entering the UK.
Current regulations allow British dual nationals flexibility in choosing passports for travel, but new rules will eliminate this benefit, requiring proof of British citizenship.
Under upcoming regulations, British dual nationals will face the option of using a valid UK passport or incurring additional costs to secure a Certificate of Entitlement.
The implementation of the ETA visa waiver complicates matters for British dual nationals, creating additional bureaucratic hurdles for those without a current UK passport.
