I think we can fairly assume that all OECD countries fall into this category. Many third world countries have at least currency restrictions, which would not be, strictly speaking, being allowed to leave the country with all their possessions. I found this out the hard way the first time I visited Egypt. I had about $50 worth of Egyptian currency left and tried to buy another currency with it only to be told that only amounts in excess of US$500 worth of Egyptian pounds could be converted for export (and there's no way I'd spent that much), so I figured, what the heck, and bought a beautiful brass and copper dish with a picture of Nefertiti on it in the airport gift shop.
