This may sound stupid but when filling out Ds157 question 9 asks for all countries entered in the last 10 years. Does this mean airports or trains or other transportation through a country on the way to a final destination or only countries that were your final destination?

As a rule, I would think transiting through a country does not mean you've actually been there. If you enter immigration and they stamp your passport, then that would be an official visit you'd want to list.

Thanks, that is what I was thinking but wanted to get some opinions.
