What travel document should a dual national register when booking the Helsinki-St Petersburg train?

The information submitted to the railway operator will likely only be used by authorities to check against lists of unwanted/dangerous/interesting persons, and NOT to determine whether one is entitled to enter the country. That determination is made in person, based on the presented documents.

So, technically it shouldn’t matter which set of details is entered. Given that I’d expect more hassle from Russian border guards than from the Finnish ones, I’d put the SA passport information in for both directions and then just show the Swedish ID when entering Finland.

I suggest to use the passport which would be used on arrival, so for a way to Saint Petersburg it will be South-African, and for a way to Helsinki it will be Swedish one.

This should work fine, as the most interested side for getting one’s passport info is “accepting” country.
