I'm a dual Australian/British citizen and have two passports. I've been travelling around SE Asia using only my Australian passport and about 75% of it is filled up with various stamps and stickers. My British passport meanwhile, is empty, so it seems like it might be a good idea to use it for a while so I don't max out my Aussie passport while abroad.

Does anyone know what the deal is with doing this?

I need to do a visa run to Penang in a few days, so I'm wondering what the response from immigration would be if I requested a new Thai tourist visa in the empty British passport.

I'm thinking I would leave Thailand (via land at the Sadao border) presenting my Aus passport and exit leaflet, then present my Brit passport when entering Malaysia to get the 90 day entry stamp, and use it again at the Thai embassy.

Anyone here have any experience juggling passports in this manner? Is it possible or do you have to keep using the same passport when travelling that you did when leaving your country of origin?
