How much room in the passport is needed...
Damn, less than a week before I go, and I realise I only have 3 double
pages left empty in my passport! I am going to the following places: Estonia (entering 3 times) Latvia (entering twice) Lithuania (once) Finland (once) Japan (stopover, yeah, I know it's not in Europe) Do any of these places put more than just a small stamp on the passport? Thanks! --- DFM |

At Finnish borders moslems get very large boot shape return stamps on their buttocks if I recall it right. |

I cannot remember if Finland is or not Just because you are transiting from one EU country to another doesn't mean that you don't get a stamp, especially if you hold a non EU passport, I've seen french immigration at Calais stamp passports of (then) non-EU citizens, but they don't even bother to look at mine. Only when transiting between Schengen countries can you be (reasonably) sure not to get stamped tim |

when you travel between the 3 baltic states. they check all passports and
they stamp all the passports ( except their own passports).- it might look ridicolous. but these three small states are very jeaolous of their being independent states.- so they take it very seriously when you arrive at their borders. Being EU states now. there are no more customs controls and EU citizens can travel on their own ID cards in that case. there is no place for stamps. but arriving at airports. they have now different booths. EU citizens Non EU citizens by train or by bus.. they stop all train and all buses for passports controls.

They have passport controls in place between each other and the rest of the world like they did before entering EU. So each of them may stamp the passport individually. Finland is in EU and indeed in Schengen, but as it's the only Schengen country on the list, that doesn't matter. Finland has passport controls in place for visitors coming in from or leaving to a non-Schengen country, which also means they may stamp the passport.

I have yet to see any border control at any border. I drive across these borders, walk across them, when my plane lands from Italy in France for example, there is no passport officer anywhere. Does Finland have border guards still? |
