While waiting, open your passport to the photo page and have your return ticket and accommodation confirmation accessible on your phone. This speeds things up when you reach the counter.

Answer immigration questions briefly
The officer may ask your purpose of visit, where you're staying, and when you're leaving. Answer clearly and honestly. Keep it short — they process hundreds of passengers daily.
