How do border officials recognize stamps from other countries? Often, they're just written in a foreign language.
Hello, many stamps only list the country in their language, not in English. I don't think every border official knows the entire alphabet. For example:
Syria
Russia
How do you know which country this is?

Most of them will have met in the course of their momentum. The ones that they do not recognize at the moment can check them.
Nowadays something is scanned and recognized as real or unreal.
this is really not a special performance of computers.
a stamp should be questionable and you just get to the side of the person and check
It's just the people who punched it.
A Canadian does not have to recognize a Syrian stamp.
A Mexican not a Russian. Why? It's about the day of entry and exit. Nothing else.
But Israelis recognize all Arab and "Muslim" stamps and vice versa the Arabs all recognize the Israeli stamp. But that's another issue.
With a Syrian stamp, you can no longer simply enter the USA. Then you have to run any personal interviews at the embassy and then you might get a visa, but usually not. With a Russia stamp there can also be questioned at the border. That is why it is very relevant for the border officials to know in which countries the person was. In Canada, a Syrian stamp can also cause big problems, only if in the past a US visa has been denied by the person.
Do you think the Canadian borderers always realize that a US visa was rejected?

There are not so many stamps
They'll probably be trained on it. And then they look deep into the eyes of the candidate.
He doesn't see it on the stamp.
He enters the name or scans the passport. Swallow. Swallow.
Then he sees on his screen whether the state enemy No. 3,789 is in front of him or not.
I have been expelled (deported) from Canada with a lifetime entry ban and then traveled 7 x without problems to the USA. That's what they're looking at – if it's – only for a visa application. I'm a German citizen and don't need a visa.
Yes, Canada, USA and Mexico have a deal.
Most stamps will know them.
There are not that many countries.
E.g. on the Arabic and Russian characters. 😉
It can be any Russian-speaking country or any Arab country.
