Can a U.S. citizen convicted of a felony in the United States travel abroad?

Answer 1

Sure, If you have served your sentence.

Answer 2

No. A us citizen convicted of a felony is unable to obtain a passport, and thus unable to travel abroad. Unless this convicted felon is able to get the courts to expunge his/her record, they will not be able to travel to any country that requires a passport.

Answer 3

I think it's going to be on a country by country basis - a felon will have a problem getting a passport, I think. I don't even think Canada will admit felons, and you don't need a passport to go there from the US.

If a felon wants to go to Canada, they should let someone else do the driving as they run license plates at the border.

Answer 4

yes, the government will issue you a pass port unless you are on parole or on probation , if so your probation officer or parole sup, will need to okay it , once you have a passport you won't need a visa to go to most countries , if the country you intend to visit requires a visa they will decide wheather or not to grant you a visa, good luck

Answer 5

I really dont think thats such a good idea unless you plan on never coming back

Answer 6

Of course so long as a court oder doesnt prevent you.

Answer 7

Probably not, but check with your probation and parole office;
they should know for sure.

Answer 8

If the person completed his/her sentence, then I guess they can travel.

Answer 9

Yes they can.

Answer 10

Yes--unless the crime was treason.
