They, the US, didn't stamp my passport once on my last trip (neither exit or re-entry). I thought it was odd haha


The US would never stamp anyone's passport on exit. We don't have exit passport controls unlike several other countries (most of the EU comes to mind).

Which, given this country's paranoia about immigration, is rather surprising. You'd think the La Migra would want to know as soon as someone goes a minute beyond the length of time their visa allows them to stay. But I'm glad we don't do exit controls.

Just got a new passport about a year ago, so I only have 1 stamp for Japan and 1 for Canada.

My previous passport had 3 stamps for Korea, and 3 for Japan and 1 for Canada (courtesy stamp).

If you travel that much you should get Global Entry - no more US entry stamps.

I have considered it. I travel a few times a year. I also lost an entire page for my Chinese Visa and another whole page for my Russian Visa. Over 10 years the space goes away :(

I feel I'm doing well as an American. The countries I've visited are: Mexico, Canada, Hong Kong, Singapore, The Philippines, South Korea, and Japan. All of them more than once.
