algerian authorities will allow you without any problems to get into the country with your algerian passport and leave the country using the british one that will be your exit card as it will show that you are allowed to get into britain as long as you show your algerian one that will prove how you got into the country in the first place , a bit confusing but it works.3crown wrote:My husband will be applying for BC soon.
Does anyone know if he will have to/be able to retain his (Algerian) passport in order to travel back & forth to his own country in the future? Or once he has BC will he need an entry Visa for Algeria if he travels on his British Passport? Thank you.

Why use the British one on exit from Algeria.You shoud use the Algerian one to exit from Algeria, that way at least you have got entry and exit stamps in the same passport.algerian authorities will allow you without any problems to get into the country with your algerian passport and leave the country using the british one that will be your exit card as it will show that you are allowed to get into britain as long as you show your algerian one that will prove how you got into the country in the first place , a bit confusing but it works.
you use your algerian passport to exit from algeria assuming that you have still your visa or uk residency card on that passport if you don`t how would you think the air and border police would let you out of the country? you just don`t walk into a plane going somewhere. thats not the EU.and stamping has nothing to do with it .if you could read arabic there were a lots of horror stories of that sort in the algerian news paper "al khabar" this summer where parents of algero/french children got into the country on their own algerian passports but assumed they could leave as easily but when time to leave arrived they couldn`t because there was nothing to prove they had the right to go to france no french passport and no visa on the algerian one and i didn`t matter if their algerian passport mentioned where they were born or lived.batleykhan wrote:Why use the British one on exit from Algeria.You shoud use the Algerian one to exit from Algeria, that way at least you have got entry and exit stamps in the same passport.algerian authorities will allow you without any problems to get into the country with your algerian passport and leave the country using the british one that will be your exit card as it will show that you are allowed to get into britain as long as you show your algerian one that will prove how you got into the country in the first place , a bit confusing but it works.

i am about to be in the same situation . my view is that is he want to travel to algeria he can only use his algeria passport for the journey.
If he want to enter algeria with a british passport he will need to check if british national need a visa to enter algeria. so he will do what he think easy for him.
