Dual nationality
Hi Guys
I've done a search on this topic, but haven't been able to find a satisfactory answer.
Basically I am planning a trip from London down to Cape Town via West Africa and I have both British and South African citizenship. I was wondering what potential hassles I might have carrying both passports with me.
Only carrying one passport is not an option for me as I need the South African passport to enter South Africa (it is compulsory for South African citizens with dual nationality to enter South Africa with their South African passport) and the British passport to travel from the UK down through Europe.
I suppose logically I could use my British passport to travel all the way from the UK down to the border between Namibia and South Africa and then switch over to the South African passport to enter South Africa.
Another concern is that I am white and from previous trips to African countries (before I became a British citizen), when black Africans meet a white South African, their reactions range from incredulity and disbelieve that there is such a thing, to a slight sense of unease that perhaps I'm raging racist.
Many thanks
