Could an unofficial stamp on my passport prevent me to enter China?
Hi everyone. I'm italian and I'm travelling to China in august (I'll arrive in Xian and then visit Chengdu and Chongqing later).
When I was in Osaka in Japan in 2017 I printed an unofficial Osaka Castle's stamp on my passport. I know that this sounds really foolish, and it is, but I saw other people doing it and I did it too without thinking of the consequences.
That time I had no problem leaving Japan and coming back in Italy (through Moscow and London). But now I'm really worried this could turn into a problem when I arrive in China.
Should I not worry?
