Yes, they'll be fined for 2k EUR if get caught. I had a bad service as the guy at the airport simply cancelled my ticket. After contacting the customer relations, they promise to reactivate the ticket and move it at a different date. Would you suggest that I should get a EEA family permit to solve ...

Thanks, but I would rather have the free EEA family permit since my residence permit in the UK is expiring too. To get a free family permit as the spouse and child of a British citizen resident in Germany you would need to demonstrate that your husband is working or is self-employed in Germany and ...

Thanks, but I would rather have the free EEA family permit since my residence permit in the UK is expiring too. I am also checking what is this as the airport guy mentioned that they'll accept that: 7) a valid uniform format category D visa for entry to a state in the European Economic Area (EEA) Wh...

Nevertheless, how ridiculous is BA deny a 2.5 year old on board as she didn't have a British passport or EEA family permit or German visa. I completely understand your frustration, however, it would appear that BA were following guidance given to them. They are concerned about being fined by the UK...

See also Nationality Advice . Child may apply for a Certificate of Entitlement to the Right of Abode instead of a British passport . An EEA family permit may also be possible if the British Embassy ignores child's British citizenship. Thanks, I've been reading this quite useful information. We are ...

Oh dear, my husband was not born in the UK but moved there at a very young age and acquired the British passport later. However it is right that my child do have the option to choose different passports, and even able to choose to be German as she is born in Germany if she decide that when she stay ...

Oh, I found an old interesting post saying this "Aufenthaltskarte" looks like some document written in Chinese. :? I had that kind of experience from the airport crew and immigration officers last year.

China doesn't allow dual nationality. Obtaining a British passport effectively causes loss of Chinese nationality. Yes, you are correct.
