So it seems that the European Union countries are the least intrusive as far as customs and immigration goes. I'll add Singapore to that list of countries.

A few years ago, my partner entered a country which she had just become a newly-minted citizen of but had never lived in. Given her experience as a native-born Canadian reentering Canada, she was terrified of being questioned in a language she isn't fluent in. All the immigration officer did was briefly glance at her passport and politely thanked her.
