@herbigp You couldn't leave either, even if you wanted to leave permanently, even if the other end would let you in and stay forever - unless you were over 50 and thus deemed useless by the govt, then you could leave without issue.

Nope - you never present more than one passport - that's literally asking for trouble. You only ever present one passport. Present the passport that gives you the most rights but keep in mind that if you're a citizen of a country, you must use their passport to enter and exit their country. So if you have an AU and an EU (Schegen Zone) passport and you leave Australia to the EU's Schengen Zone it goes as follows: 1. Leave AU on AU passport 2. Enter EU (Schengen Zone) on EU (Schengen Zone) passport to return simply do the above process in reverse - leave EU on EU passport and enter AU on AU passport.

One thing that this video forgot to mention is that if you've been dumb enough to tell a country like Australia or New Zealand what other citizenships you have, if they ban you from traveling on your Australian passport, they'll have you banned from traveling on all your other passports that they know about. This means if they have a screw-up like the "robo-debt" mess where the computer said people owed the govt money when they actually didn't, you can be both banned from all travel and if you're outside of Australia but on a visa you'll suddenly be breaching visa conditions. Whilst I appreciate that Nomad Capitalist is the goodie-two-shoes of the offshore world, sometimes its better to not tell a govt everything about you if you can avoid it - if they ask you to list your citizenships and they aren't demanding proof of them, don't list them unless you've already given them the info. Sometimes less is more - don't over-share.

@ThomasTomiczek At least those left abroad at least weren't trapped in the country for 3yrs and could get visas and work abroad - most of the world opened 6-8 months into the '2020 thing' in enough capacity to avoid breaching visas.

You can live and work in the Caribbean, without a Caribbean passport you can only visit. That AU passport is garbage - as someone with an AU passport, I would recommend scrapping it unless you like living under the thumb of the insane regime in AU who're absolutely happy to ruin your life just because they want to or because you dared to try to leave permanently since 2020.

@deanopumpkin It's only shared if you've told them on a money declaration or entry form (eTA, ESTA, ETIAS, etc.). Otherwise they have no way of knowing - this is why they ask on these forms, so they can know more about you. If they don't know you other countries of citizenship then they can't make the enquiries/electronic searches. It all depends on how much you may or may not have already told them about you.
