Hi All,,
I entered Roma holding Venezuelan passport their was no problems then I moved to Brussels and now I want to leave Brussels out of Europe. The problem is when I looked in my passport I didn't find any entry stamp and I'm very sure that I need an entry stamp.
My question is do I will face problem at Brussels airport when I leave because of no entry stamp on my passport???

probably not. even if the stamp is missing you are probably recorded electronically.

If you can access receipts for hotels or other expenses, or a copy of your inbound boarding pass, that might help.

This happened to me. I entered via Paris and left from Munich. There was no entry stamp from Paris. I told them the date I entered and also had my ticket/boarding pass from my Atlanta-Paris flight. When I went through security they noticed the missing stamp and sent my upstairs to the security office, where they said "no problem", stamped my passport and sent me on my way. In your case, I would be sure to allow enough time in case they send you to an office instead of just passing you through.

The stamp in your Passport on arrival is to indicate the date you entered the Schengen area, regardless of which country you enter in. As Nigel mentioned, I believe this information is also recorded electronically so it will be available on the data systems in the Schengen countries as well. If you're concerned about being questioned on exit, have your E-Ticket at hand so you can show them your flight details, which will indicate your date of entry.
