Narrative:

After we had secured the aircraft at the gate in ZZZZ; I realized that maintenance stickers had not been written up in the logbook on the ground in ZZZZ1. This was a result of several disruptions that took place on the ground in ZZZZ1. Upon shutdown in ZZZZ1; very quickly the cockpit was swarmed by several people. Loadmaster; maintenance and local quarantine authorities all congregated in the cockpit area. It was conveyed that before anything could take place on the aircraft until the entire flight crew had cleared the local inspection protocol. This entailed all flight crews leaving the aircraft for a temperature and document check on the outside aircraft steps. In order to get the process of unloading and loading going we all left the cockpit area. Before leaving the cockpit we briefed maintenance on the stickers and the required inspections needed. We were all under the impression that maintenance would complete the inspection and complete the logbook as required. After we had completed the quarantine inspection and reentered the cockpit; we observed the mechanics discussing the stickers. I incorrectly assumed that they had been entered into the logbook as we had received the maintenance release. As I was entering the stickers in the logbook in ZZZZ I realized that ZZZZ1 maintenance had not entered them in the logbook.in the future I will not allow any external influences take priority before all my duties are complete. Also I will start enforcing the no cockpit entering until I have completed all my post flight duties. A suggestion would be to pass the responsibility of writing up the stickers to maintenance as it is a maintenance function. The flight crew is saddled with enough work.
