I've never heard that. Are you talking about a personal amount of pot, or was it a boatload?

If you have proper travel paperwork, then I don't see how anyone would know about it.

If you don't get a specific answer here, I'd ask a local travel agent; I'd bet you're not the first to ask - and I'd think they'd be a good source.

I think you should have no fear. It would take quite some doing to have a worldwide "list" of people who have minor pot charges against them.
