I mean, is it any different traveling abroad as a dual citizen between two nations (carrying both passports with you) or does it remain the same as traveling with only a single passport? Are there also complications of possessing two citizenships during times of crisis? (Like who takes charge when something occurs from war, natrual disaster, kidnapping & ransom, etc.).
The idea of being a citizen of two countries sounds good but can come with caveats when you take into account of diplomatic reciprocity or foreign relations, whether both countries are friends or enemies. Some countries forbid dual citizenship (like Japan or UAE) while there are countries that allow it (such as UK or USA).
Dual citizen here, 2 European passports. A lot of counties do not recognise dual citizenship of their own citizen, so you get a warning that even if you legitimately hold another citizenship (which they can’t do nothing about), it is not recognised in any way. The other country, which does acknowledge dual citizenship, tells me that the passport I travel abroad with is the consular service I may call upon: it is expressly forbidden to seek assistance from 2 nations over one problem when abroad. That’s all the limits I see / experience.
This is very interesting to me and I’d like to see who/where it says that.
Not doubting you, I’d just love to dig into the history of why that’s a rule.
