Dec 30, 2021 at 14:47 comment added Dragonel @fraxinus - The whole reason for revoking her citizenship was to deny her entry. So while technically a citizen must be allowed to enter, the fact that you are a citizen today doesn't mean you will always be allowed in.
Dec 30, 2021 at 14:34 comment added fraxinus @Dragonel Begum is (was?) dual citizen and her UK citizenship was supposedly revoked. The noise was around her citizen status and not the right to enter based on citizenship.
Dec 30, 2021 at 14:29 comment added fraxinus Your home country is pretty much able to get you quarantined, detained and/or prosecuted right after you step in. This is different. The No Fly List is an US-only thing and even when put on it, one is still able to travel home by feet, wheels or sails. The only discussion I have read about in regard to ISIS fighters/supporters is in UK, the case when one has dual citizenship and the possible options to revoke the secondary citizenship.
Dec 30, 2021 at 14:27 comment added Dragonel @fraxinus There is the current on-going situation with Shamima Begum (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shamima_Begum) where the UK decided to withdraw her citizenship. The UK maintains she has an additional citizenship of Bangladesh but this is disputed, however she has been successfully kept out of the UK for years.
Dec 30, 2021 at 13:25 comment added Kai Burghardt @fraxinus Well, it can at least become quite difficult to return to your home country though if, for instance, you’re put on a No Fly List while staying abroad. And in the context of ISIS/ISIL/Daesh supporters/fighters returning to their country of origin many governments discussed the option of denying entry. I’m not sure whether any country implemented appropriate measures though. Ultimately, border control has the upper hand in your fate.
Dec 30, 2021 at 9:55 comment added fraxinus You cannot be denied entering your home country - as long as it is clear who are you (a local passport or an ID helps a lot). After all, it is your home country where other countries return you if they are a great deal not happy with you. They are expected to let you in even if themselves not happy with you.
