#26 iviehoff and #32 ianw, I had a look at a few pages of the denied entry posts in TT UK and roughly half appear to involve boy/girl friends so I would second Ian's advice that 'full disclosure' is not necessarily the best advice in the circumstances.

I spent a few nights in Ukraine last Friday, and now I am considering returning for a few nights prior to my return to the USA on October 22. Would it be suspicious in the eyes of immigration officers that I was recently there, resulting in a long conversation with them? Is that a basis for denying entry?

I too will be keen to learn from President Hassan Rouhani’s government, when passport holders with an Israeli stamp or stamps from other countries’ border crossing points with Israel, as well as Israeli passport holders will not be denied entry to the Islamic Republic of Iran.

Is this another of those "urban legends", or does anyone know of ANYONE who has ever been denied entry to Mexico because of not having an exit reservation, whether by air or otherwise? I, too, have flown into Mexico on a one-way ticket numerous times, and never have been questioned as to my departure plans.

Should be 90 days each stay, IE every time you leave it will reset for a new 90 days. Of course you may start getting looks if you are just going to Japan for 1 day every 90 days. As always, immigration can deny entry to anyone they choose.

Thanks for helping. As tou say, the fianl decision belongs to the Immigration Officer so you can never know before you are at manama Airport. The solution is maybe to take a special insurance to get my monet back (flights tickets, hotels) is i am finally denied to entry. What do you think ?

It is possible you could be there for hours. It is possible you could be let through pretty quickly. But you won't be denied entry only because of your visas.

You can certainly say where you are going to visit, i just wouldn't refer to the area as "Palestine"

@7. The carrier is relevant. If a passenger is denied entry by immigration, the airline is responsible for repatriating the passenger to the country from which he/she arrived. Carriers do question people fr developed countries about return tickets (I provided 2 examples above).

It turns out that Yemen has for some mysterious reason added me to a red list and banned me from entry and my visa was denied. I have been to Yemen before but visiting tourist sites in Haraz Mtns and Marib are hardly threatening to national security. I hope to some day make it to Socotra.

The obvious point to make is that if you enter Israel by land or sea by any route except the King Hussein Bridge then you are guaranteed to have evidence of a visit to Israel even if your passport doesn't get stamped which means you will be denied entry to Libya and Algeria.
