Don't carry digital data across any border, even if encrypted. Many countries have totally different standards over search and seizure at their borders to when you have gained entry and sometimes far worse for non citizens.

A good option is backing up your data, encrypting it, then uploading to a server you can retrieve it from once you've crossed

Setting up some stuff might look less sus than a freshly wiped device though
