I have a 2 passports. I have a long term visa with my British Passport for Italy. Can I enter Italy with my Malaysian passport using my Italian residency on my British passport to have my Malaysian passport stamped?

Malaysia does not allow dual nationality.

Thanks.

According to this previous question it seems possible:

Can a double citizen with a Schengen residence permit enter the Schengen area on their second passport?

It is possible to enter the Schengen zone with a passport different from the passport of the residency permit or long term visa.

Does anyone have any recent experience doing this?

Thanks!

General answer:

Admission into country C is governed by the laws of country C. A and B's opinion don't really matter. If it's legal to enter country C with passport B, than they will admit you. The fact that you also have passport of country A and a visa in that passport, doesn't matter. If you present passport B at the border, they will only look at passport B. You CANNOT use the Visa in A in conjunction with passport B.

Example: I have US and German passports and a China Visa in my US passport. If I go to China, I can use my US passport with the China Visa. If I present my German passport, I will be declined entry since this requires a Visa which I don't have.

Specific answer:

There are currently 7301190 possible combinations of three different countries. All of which may very well have special rules and provision that make your specific case different from the General Answer.

ADDED since the question has been updated

Does anyone have any recent experience doing this?

Yes, but it REALLY depends on what countries are involved. I can enter Germany with my German or US passport. I can enter Italy with either passport. I can NOT enter the US with my German passport.
