Is it ok to travel with both those passports?
Re: If you have dual nationality..
i dunno about Pakistan because India does NOT allow dual citizenship. we have something called OCI cards with which we do NOT need visa. It comes handy.
i think Pakistan allows you to travel on your national card/passport. :)
Re: If you have dual nationality..
Yes Its okay to travel with more than one passport. Although I always show the one I am traveling on I always keep the other one just in case they want to see. Just don't show them unless they ask for it. Even if they do see your other passport, its all good!

No problem at all. Pakistan also allows it.
No need to tell about your second passport if you are not asked about it.
A second Pakistani passport may give you a problem in some cases. For example, if you are travelling to US and other passport you carry is from a country that doesnt require visa for states.
If they know that you also carry a Pakistani passport, you will have to go through all the usual procedures they have for Pakistani passport holders only.
Re: If you have dual nationality..
I used to travel to Pakistan on my Pakistani passport, and leave Pakistan back to the UK on my British passport.
The only complication was that I had no passport stamps at all when entering Pakistan (because Pakistani nationals do not get stamped on entry), but when leaving Pakistan, they would try to insist on stamping the British passport with an exit stamp.
Which meant that my British passport appeared to show that I left Pakistan without ever having legally entered it.

i am not a dual nationality holder but i dont think it should ever give a problem.
What about NICOP cards ? Has any one tried his foreign passport with a NICOP card while coming to Pakistan? I think no need to show Pakistani passport or a Pakistani visa on your foreign PP if you carry a NICOP card.

Yeah that's what my family uses when going to Pak. The NICOP plus foreign passport.

They always stamp your PPs when coming in, are you sure that you had no entry stamp on your PP?
There is no way you can leave Pakistan without getting your passport stamped. If you show them both your British and Pakistani PP, they will stamp both.
Re: If you have dual nationality..
it is ok to present both passport at immigration counter when entring pakistan. immigration officer will stamp on both.
basically, pakistani passport will allow you to enter in pakistan without visa.
Re: If you have dual nationality..
I also have that same question:
What if you have a valid Pakistani passport and just acquired a newly issued U.S. passport (through naturalization). Can I travel to Pakistan and present both passports (instead of applying for a NICOP)?
