Taiwaned, this sounds similar to my situation. So, he leaves China with his Chinese passport, but does he enter Japan with his Chinese or his Canadian passport? Also, does he have to exit the immigration area and then re-check in for his flight to Canada?

Thanks so much.

When he leaves Canada, he always uses his Canadian passport

Goes to Japan then enters China using his Chinese passport.

He wants to protect his Chinese citizenship until his parents pass away. Parents live in China and he is in fear that they will need elder care.

When his inlaws had medical issues, he and his wife was able to make it back to China, lived there until they were better and come back to Canada.
