Dual Citizen (US/UK) Cuba Travel

Upvote:4

  1. As several commenters have said US citizens must enter and exit the US on their US passport no matter how many other passports that they hold. So there is no reason for the US border people to be looking at any other passport you might have to start with. Relax!
  2. If you are concerned that somehow they will look for two stamps from Mexico in your UK passport then just leave Cuba for a different country such as a Caribbean island. Then return to Mexico from there. Without any Cuban stamps it will appear you left Mexico and arrived in said island.
  3. If you are super paranoid that they will examine the dates of the stamps then arrive in Cuba in the early morning and depart in the late evening for a day trip. All the dates will line up ok.
  4. If you are still worried maybe you should not be vising Cuba to start with. It is illegal for US citizens to visit Cuba, though the law is not often applied.

You need to decide if it is more important to you personally whether to follow a law that many people consider to be silly and not often prosecuted or have an interesting travel. Given the hundreds of thousands of laws currently in the US it has been estimated that all citizens break some law every day. The government just doesn't go after them unless it has a personal grudge against them. Relax. Happy Travels!
