Dual nationals need British passports by 25 February
Starting 25 February, citizens holding two nationalities must present a UK passport or digital certificate to enter the country. Previously, these individuals could travel using their foreign documents, but obtaining the required British identification now costs adults approximately £100. Travellers without valid proof risk being refused permission to board flights or cross the border, causing significant concern for those currently abroad.
