Traveling to the UK passport question

[catfrances 3]

Hi All,

I am looking to flying back to the UK (home) for 3 weeks. I have a newborn and I am applying for a USA passport for her. I also want to get her a UK passport but might do that when I am back home. The question is, I have a UK passport (I am British with a 10 year green card), my daughter will have a USA passport, there shouldn't be any issue for me arriving in the UK seeing that she will have a USA passport will there?

I was under the impression if you have dual citizenship then you should enter the country with the relevant passport, so enter the UK with the British passport and the USA with the USA passport. Anyone have any clue?

Thanks!

Your child is an American and can enter the UK as an American. You might want to take her birth certificate just to prove you are the parent and not a kidnapper. At this point, she may not be officially a British citizen yet. She has the right to be British, but it hasn't been established as such with a report of her birth to the UK government.
