  • I can imagine that some authorities might find it suspicious, but in OPs case, it is necessary to travel with both passports to have the least hassle.

    Entering the US with your German passport or returning to Germany with your US passport if you have both will lead to a lot of questions as you won’t have the necessary visa in those passports.

    Edit: Although I wouldn’t present both passports at the same time, only the one that is applicable or more convenient for wherever you are.


  • Always enter and exit the US with your US passport. Not doing so is illegal.

    For anything else, use your German passport, especially in the EU. That’s what I have been doing for years.

    I don’t know if it is an issue for immigration, but you absolutely are required to file taxes every year and can get in trouble if you don’t. There’s a “streamlined procedure” that you can do if you’ve never filed taxes to start filing without incurring any fines or penalties.
