Traveling outside the UK and re-entering with BRP after naturalisation
Posted: Wed Jan 22, 2020 11:05 am
Hello everyone,
My naturalisation ceremony will take place on the 4th February.
I will apply for British passport on the same day.
On the 5th February I intend to travel to Italy until the 10th February while keeping my BRP and my existing Russian passport.
Will I be able to enter the UK on the 10th by presenting my Russian passport and the BRP at the border?
Also, I have two valid Russian passports. Will I be allowed to keep at least one of them while my British passport application is being processed?
I am aware of the 5 working days rule for returning BRP cards and will do so immediately if they let me in on the 10th.
Thank you for your help
Michael
