Dual nationality question. (alien.top)

I have a kiwi passport and a UK one. Obviously because of brexit I can't stay more than 180 days in a year... however could I do 90 days in one schengen country on my uk passport, fly to another schengen country, get stamped, on my nz one and then do that kind of on a loop in order to stay in Europe for 360 days out of a year and then just do 5 days outside of Europe or in the uk for example?

No.

The 90 in 180 constraint is per person, not per passport.

Figured as much. Cheers

I’m a dual national too (US/Spain) have have done this in both Thailand and Vietnam.

0 issues, ‘in the system’ I’m tho different people.

Now, neither of them are Europe and I didn’t use electronic gates (cause there ain’t)

So this is the thing, I've also done it in Asia. My passports don't have biometrics and passports in my mind are like eligibility visas so I should be allowed what the passport allows. For example if I go to Australia I can stay as long as I want on my nz passport, not on the uk one though. So it's about the passport not the person right? Haha

Tbh I believe the ‘legal’ answer is ‘you are only one dude, having multiple books with your face in them don’t make you two people’

This being said… reality isn’t always this straight forward.

Imo you’ll be fine, and if not… what’s the worst that can happen? You get sent back?

Neither of your passport have the chip? That’s weird are they very old?

I’m dual. I’d love you to try it to see how it goes. If it works, let me know. Would be great!
