The question is unclear and does not give enough information.
What KIND of US Officers is the question referring to? Civilian law enforcement? Military personnel? Agents of a federal agency? Is the search being conducted against a US citizen? Is the search being conducted on US soverieign soil (e.g.: Military base - US Embassy or Counsulate)?
If the evidence sought in the search is going to be presented in a US court then the requirements of US law must be met. However, if none of the above applies,. as long as the search was lawfully conducted according to the laws of the country in which it was conducted, it should be lawful.

General searches are unconstitutional and never legal. This stems from Marron V. United States (1927).

This case makes it impossible for general searches to be legal.
