  1. No, there is no border controls between the 4 states/consituent countries of the U.K. because its all the same country.


  2. no only one when you get here x

  3. no hun

    just a UK one.................. at the mo :-)

  4. ask at the airport but they dont normally stamp. But then I live here so maybe thats why!

  5. no there is no control betwen the boarders between scotland wales and england so there is no one to stamp the passports

  6. There is no manned border between Wales, England and Scotland.  The only way you know you have crossed the border is that there is a sign that reads "welcome to Scotland"  and that's it.  If you mean flying to different airports from outside the UK then there probably is something on the stamp which says the name of the Airport i.e. Prestwick, Dyce, Heathrow etc.

    The reason for this is that the UK is classed as one country although it is 4 separate countries in one.  It's a bit like saying you'll get a different stamp in your passport if you land in Texas from the one you'd get in Louisianna.

  7. Erm, NO! The UK is one country with four parts. England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. Great Britain is just Engalnd, Scotland and Wales as Northern Ireland is part of a different island but basically it's like going from one U.S. state to another. Same government, same laws, same money, just different people & places. Northern Ireland's the best bit though!

  8. When you enter the UK, most commonly Heathrow in London England, you will be stamped in.  As you move around to Wales or Scotland, there are no border control that will even look at your passport let alone stamp it.

    So once you arrive, unless you venture off into Europe (the continent like France etc.), you won't need your passport until you get back home.

    In American terms, assuming you are American, it's a bit like traveling between Tennessee, Virginia, and North Carolina.

  9. No you only get one. My love. Have a good time.
