You’ll want to get rid of the beard if you’re doing international travel. All airport security workers know that people with beards are more likely to be terrorists or drug smugglers.
James is right. Going beardless is better for international travel. I bring razors along with me just for that purpose.
Last time I was coming back in to the US (from Canada), I got the 20 questions game from a border crossing guard. He thought I was suspicious or something. I only had a few days of face scruff too (well, roughly almost a week).
Of course, it doesn’t help that my passport has me pictured with a beard…
