Ironically, on the Unrated DVD cover art, it shows Michelle Trachtenberg taking her bikini off. She's actually the only main character in the movie who doesn't go naked.
When the movie arrives in Germany, there is a white sign "automatische afsluiting" and blue sign showing a car being repaired. Both signs are not German, but Dutch. "Automatische afsluiting" means "Automatic locking".
When Cooper and Scotty get to England they stand beside each other and their arms are not overlapped. When seen from the front, theirs arms are overlapped.
When their flight home from Rome is called, they are still in the check-in area. For an international flight they should have checked in, cleared customs, and passed through security before their flight was called. In a busy airport like the one in Rome, they will be lucky if they make it to the gate in time to board the flight.

What are the differences between the R-rated version and the Unrated version?
A
Like any other recent teen comedy both R-rated and Unrated versions were released on DVD. The latter features a slightly longer cut showing some more nudity and profanity but also some prolonged plot elements. A detailed comparison between both versions can be found here.
Q
Is it actually Matt Damon singing "Scotty Doesn't Know" at the graduation party?
A
No. Matt Damon simply mimes the song. The voice you hear singing is the lead singer's of the band Lustra who wrote and performed the song for the film.
Q
What is the regulation regarding travelling in Europe without a passport?
A
For the most part travel without a passport or visa is guaranteed only within the Schengen area of the European Union. At the time of production (2004) Slovakia was not a member of the Schengen agreement (joined 2007) and therefore the characters would not have been able to travel to Bratislava without at least a passport. Also at the time of production air travel regulation required at least some form of photo identification regardless of whether the destinations were within the Schengen area. Most European airlines require as standard procedure that the identification be a passport with at least six months remaining. Given the time constraints it's reasonable to believe the characters had to fly from Berlin to Rome in order to catch Mieke and would not have been able to do so without a passport.
