Visas

[Marmalade]

A Turk I know, with a UK passport is under the impression he needs a visa to go to France.
I've had a nosy around on google and can find nothing to support this, does anyone know either way and have any source of the info?

If it makes any difference, his passport is blue, not red.

Turkey issues blue passports. All UK ones that I have come across (standard, BNO, diplomatic) are dark red.

He may need a visa to go to France on a Turkish passport. He doesn't need one to go there (or anywhere in the EU) on a British passport.

I was under the impression that the only time dual citizenship demands you use one passport or another is if you are going to one of the issuing countries.

For example, a friend of mine has dual US/UK citizenship and she has to travel on her US passport when travelling to the US. This is something required by the US.

So I can't see why a turk would have to travel on a turkish passport to France if he has a UK passport.

If he has a UK passport I think he's pretty much an EU citizen, isn't he?

My flatmates are Brazilian and they went all over Europe for Christmas just with student visas and didn't need to visit an embassy once.

Most importantly though, if you go through any EU customs with a British passport with your name on it... you don't even need to speak, the documents say it all. He can just sail through, surely.

Turns out, I'm stupid.

It is a Turkish passport he has

When he showed me it I thought it was British, I didn't look at it in detail and it looks just like mine.

Well, what's the worst case scenario? He gives it dirka dirka, they shove him in a shanty town by the Chunnel, hand him a booklet titled "Avec du claim le ayslum et benefits au Royaume-Uni" and look the other way.
