British citizenship

[Terpe]

Can you clarify. Are you of Filipino origin, and looking? Traveling to Saudi on a brand new, shiney, no stamps, British Passport?

If so then they may have suspected other things such as it being invalid 'because you're obviously not British'. They are a law unto themselves out there.

No Trefor. She was travelling on a Philippines passport.
Apparently she was still waiting for her British Passport at that time.
Just prior to travelling she had become a naturalised British Citizen and she said that the UKBA (or other authority) had immediately shared that information to Philippine Embassy and that immediately following that the Philippine Embassy had somehow revoked/cancelled her Philippine passport without her knowledge leading to the Saudi immigration refusing entry as her passport was invalid.

The objective of the many questions was to establish the root cause as it seemed unlikely that such information would be shared and shared so quickly.

Many folks have become naturalised British Citizens but continued to travel on their Philippine passports without any issue.
The key factor being, is there a sharing of information about becoming a British Citizen from UK authorities to other foreign Embassies/authorities. Or is it incumbent solely on the individual to declare such changes as otherwise it remains unknown.

It appears from the practical experience of many that there is no automatic secret sharing of such information.
But according to Mystica there is indeed a sharing of such information as it subsequently happened in her experience as outlined here in this thread.

For those living within the M25 this is roughly translated to mean she was talking bocks

Well I'd have to agree Marco........and certainly anecdotal evidence as well as other regulatory requirements support that. But I always like to understand the facts so I already asked the Home Office.......be interesting to see if they want to divulge anything.
