I did not get my passport stamped in Melbourne

I did not get my passport stamped in Melbourne - Person Holding an Opened Passport

I am a Indian passport holder and was going back to India when my immigration card was not checked.

How do I get my passport stamped?



Best Answer

Australia does not routinely stamp passports on exit. So it is perfectly normal that you left without getting an exit stamp.

They do maintain electronic entry-exit records, so they will know whether you left on time and will not hold the lack of a stamp against you.

If you're particularly concerned or think your exit may not have been recorded properly (perhaps if you entered on one passport and left on another; I'm not sure if this situation is fully accounted for), you could simply retain proof of your exit, such as your boarding pass back to India, just in case.

Do all passports get stamped?

The UK's Foreign and Commonwealth Office is encouraging Brits make sure their passports are stamped when they enter and leave the EU. The stamps are important because they let border staff know when you entered the EU and when you have left. If you don't get one, you could be accused of overstaying.
