a convicted felon on parole or probation can not leave the country.
if the person has completed there sentence and is considered free, they can travel abroad, if they destination they are going to allows them to enter.

Answer 3

Depends on the international destination. Some countries have visa waivers which would allow someone who had been convicted of a felony (provided he had served out the sentence) in. However, a felon cannot leave the country without permission of the parole board, so make sure you have that or you will have difficulties on both ends.

Answer 4

If they are out on parole and have permission- usually a felon is in jail or has done time- but many are on parole and have a parole officer- and usually they have to know where they are at all times- some countries do not allow felons in-

Answer 5

traveling abroad requires a passport and I'm not sure as a felon you can get one. so the best thing to do is start by checking to see if you can aquire a passport. If you can get one then you shouldn't have any problems. Good luck

Answer 6

Sure.
