Maybe there is a difference between how they would look at things for a non-citizen but I have several Arabic stamps (including 4 or 5 from the UAE) and several Colombian stamps. Not to mention a few from some other questionable countries. Although I have been questioned, it has never been about the stamps.

There is a particular problem with the calculation and payment of taxes at the LA premium check-in area at SCL. Irrespective of whether you think you should be paying them, what I am at a loss to work out is why it takes the chap in Premium Check-In 20 minutes on a good day, while at the Comodoros check-in outside in the main throng it takes all of two minutes.
