Okay! After lot of search and my personal experience I know that a minor can hold both the passports (uk &indian) till 18.
My child was born in uk (parents Indian passport) got his Indian PP in 2010. Travelled to India in 2010 on Indian PP without any Problem.
In India we applied for his uk PP and got it .
In June 2013, after a long (around 1.5yrs) stay he came back to London.
At the the time of Delhi immigration, after the long discussion the immigration officer told us that he can carry both the PP till 18 and cleared his immigration check. And in London immigration we used his uk PP and entered in London WITHOUT ANY QUERY and problem.
Now one parent is indian and other one is british citizen and applying for OCI.
We are planning to travel to Indian soon, my question is
Is my son need any OCI, exit visa, PIO ???or can he travel to / from India / UK with just the 2 passports???
OCI, means we have to surrender his Indian PP, and we really want to keep It. Looks silly but need to ask that holding 2 passport means, can you use them for travelling as well? Don't want any hassle this time.
Any personal experiences pls?????
Thanks
