Interesting US Passport Statistics...

But both Israel and the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus will stamp a separate piece of paper, so there's no excuse really for a traveller to require a second passport. I didn't realise that a Northern Cyprus stamp in one's passport would cause problems. I believe this is no longer true. The effects of a TRNC stamp in your passport going into Greece are unpredictible. It is a violation of Republic of Cyprus law to enter or depart Cyrprus from any but an authorised ROC port of entry. While circumstances may have changed since my visit to Girne, the law almost certainly has not. (By circumstances I mean the imminent entry into the EU, and the opening of the Green Line.) |

Interesting US Passport Statistics...

For UK citizens, a visit to Libya requires a business visa stamped into one's passport. One other middle eastern state I've visited (IIRC Oman) used to jail visitors as a matter of routine if they turned up at the airport with a Libyan visa. In another thread somewhere I have mentioned a diplomatic courier acquaintance who, like all couriers, has many passports, some of which are always awaiting visas somewhere. The challenge for him is never to offer for a visa a passport that contains an entry stamp that will cause problems. Diplomatic immunity is fine (and couriers have more immunity than most diplomats) but that won't be of use if the locals take offense. I am reminded of the story of the businessman who was dashed the customs inspector 5 naira for the copy of Playboy in his valise that the inspector found offensive. Only to have a policeman accost him and tell him that he'd seen the guy pay a five naira bribe, and that would cost him ten naira. I would not like to be arriving as a diplomat (or in any other capacity) at Robertsfield Airport just now. http://www.washingtonpost.com/ac2/wp...45476-2003Sep8 But, once more, I digress. |
