New UK entry rules

[SwiftDB4]

I was approved for British citizenship in Nov. 2025. Still awaiting invitation for ceremony from San Francisco British consulate. We have a trip booked to the UK in April. My understanding is British citizens must now enter Britain on a British passport. However am I not a British citizen until the official ceremony and therefore can enter Britain on my US passport with ETA?

Until you are British you travel with your US passport plus ETA.

After you are British it has to be a British passport or your US passport with a Right of Abode endorsement from UKVI (meaning like a visa saying you are British). Cost = £500!
