Travel on Indian passport during 3 months grace period

Post by SameerBhagawatUk » Mon Jun 02, 2014 2:27 pm

Hi All,

I have gone through several posts and have almost got the answer I want. This is just to confirm that the case is still the same.

My situation is as below:

Aquired UK citizenship on 02nd April 2014
Got delivery of UK passport on 08th May 2014
I need to travel to India for 10 days from 10th June to 20th June 2014

Queries as below:

1) Can I use the 3 months grace period allowed for the Indian passport to travel to and from India?

2) If yes, do I fill the landing card claiming that I am 'Indian'?

3) Can I use my UK passport then to clear immigration on return to the United Kingdom?

I am sorry that I have posted an almost same question like several others but I just need peace of mind by getting the opinion of a few members of standing in this forum?

Thanks in anticipation of an answer.
