Re: Travel Visa

Although traveling as a convicted felon may win you a few speaking engagements, you might prefer to travel as an ordinary citizen.

A completed felony conviction and sentence will not bar you from getting a passport, nor from traveling to most countries. Some Visa applications ask about criminal convictions (England, for example), some do not (France).

If your conviction was for a sexual assault, or other aggravated crime of violence, you may encounter difficulty.

Good luck, and bon voyage.
