Getting a passport stamp while walking across a EU border
score:14
There are only four types of passport stamps in the EU.
- Road travel
- Rail travel
- Air travel
- Ferry travel
It doesn't matter if you walk, take a bike, or travel by bus; if you cross from a road border, you will get a road travel stamp.
And also please note, since Switzerland is a member of Schengen zone, there are no border controls between Switzerland and France, therefore there isn't any stamp.

If each corresponding country has a travel agreement with one another, then stamps are unnecessary. With that said, however, it does not mean you cannot get them.
I travel to Ireland at least once a year on an Irish passport from the UK, and for the past two/three years, each time I ask for a stamp. I'm always met with either surprise or confusion from the assistant, which I believe is largely because they don't often use the stamps.
However I've never had my passport checked when coming into the UK from Ireland, which is pretty odd seeming that you get it very little the other way round. When I do, I'll be able to add a stamp to my growing collection :)
Neither the UK or Ireland falls under the Schengen Area, however they are a part of the Common Travel Area, which is basically the same as the former, apart from the fact that it is limited to the Republic Of Ireland, the United Kingdom, the Isle of Man and the Channel Islands of Jersey & Guernsey.
I would love to have ones for the latter two. I've still not met anyone that has even set foot on them, lol.
