Border guards didn't cancel the stamp, when I went to the wrong gate [closed]

I mistakenly went through passport control and they put me a stamp in my passport, then it turned out that I was at the wrong gate and I returned back. Border guards did not cancel the stamp. Should I care in this situation?

Best Answer

Lacking the relevant information makes answering this difficult.

If you were in Transit:

yes, you will have a problem, since in the future they will see that you entered without a proper exit stamp and will assume that you overstayed.

Since the burden of proof lays with you, retain the ticket proving that you entered and left that airport. If you have an entry stamp for the another country you traveled to will also help (Remember to mention that on your next entry and they ask questions about this).

If you just sent to another gate to enter

no, since you already had an entry stamp a second one is not needed

If both of the scenarios don't apply

then you will simply have to add the relevant information to your question.
