Disadvantages of a German passport for a dual British-German citizen

2 years ago

Hi, I am british citizen living in Germany for many years with a German wife and 2 German born children. Both children are automatically dual British and German citizens from birth but for now have only German passports. Since 2018 (before the official Brexit) I have dual German and British citizenship. I do not intend on returning to the UK to live or work.

My British passport is due to expire in 2024 and I am wondering whether to bother applying for a renewal or whether I should now get a German passport instead.

Are there any disadvantages to me now applying for a German passport instead of a British one?

Many thanks,

machweiterso
