Lada,
I travel with both passports all the time. You show your Russian passport at
the counter and when they as for your visa, you show them American. When you
are crossing the border at the airport you show only your Russain passport. And
when you arrive to US or ane other country you only need your American one )

Subject: Expat List Dual citizenship
Dear All -
I assume there must be people on this list who hold dual citizenship,Russian
and American. I was wondering how does it work while crossing the borders? From
what I know, the US allows, but doesn't encourage dual citizenship; and I don't
think Russia allows it.
So, if one is going to the US from Russia, and is using the US passport - won't
Russian customs look for a visa in it, how you got in the country in the first
place and whether or not you are leaving on time? And if there is no visa there
(since one entered on Russian passport), will they create a problem for you?
I know de-facto that tons of people travel on both passports, I just don't know
the mechanics of it. Any info you may spare?
Thank you!Lada
