I have a 12 year old Drug Trafficking Felony. I just got back from backpacking through Europe. I landed in Frankfurt Germany Airport and went to Switzerland, Italy and France. It was amazing so it is possible
I have one that’s over 12 years old and I was charged as minor but still charged with a felony(assault). I’m wondering and praying I can get into Bali and tips or anything to calm my nerves?
Thanks so much for this! It makes me feel super hopeful. I turned my life around but I was so worried I wouldn’t be able to travel. I’m glad to hear that it’s possible!! Question: since you immigrated to a new country, are you still considered a felon or is that just in the US?
It is possible! As long as you don’t have any forgery, fraud, or crazy charges with children, you’ll be alright. I’m always considered a felon in America but that’s just America.
Japan is a little different. What was the visa application process like? Are you Anerican? Please write back and let me know how everything went! I’ve been wanting to go to Japan!
@@Robdoesitall if you are a US citizen and are planning on visiting as a tourist, you don’t need a visa. My son is Okinawa stationed as a Marine. I’ll be super bummed if I get turned away.
I would absolutely appreciate if you update this after your, hopefully successful trip. I've always dreamed of traveling to Japan but I'm also a felon(Drug Position). Thank you man. Take care.
I have two felony charges pending , honestly I got into the pti but I have a lot of empathy for felons because it can happen for anyone and mistakes happen I’m just glad that only Canada , Australia and Japan are the only countries that don’t only felons . Which is only 2-3 percent of the world you can’t go into and Europe is the most felon friendly continent they love tourists .
Yes it can then why is your country (US) so judgmental? It’s like sorry we are the perfect place like a fairy tale town in Sweden we have no criminals so don’t bring us yours!!!! Yeah right my sweet botonga
Hey, Bro. I have a felony over 10 years old. Going to start my travels to Getmany. I'd like to find a country that will grant me a residential visa, considering after 10 years I'm not likely to reoffend. Do you know which countries to take a closer look at?
Depending on your felony, you should be able to get a visa to most countries. There’s a list of the countries that aren’t with that and you’d have to google that. But there’s like 196 countries in the world. Maybe like 10 punish you forever, and that’s ok, those are the consequences of our actions. We gotta live with that.
@@PatriciaSavage-1930 That's a good piece of advice, Thanx. I've since settled in the country of Georgia. I have found a nice girlfriend, and with my social security and savings, I'm happy here. Immigration law is very open and accepting here. I'll definitely keep what you said in mind.
Thank you for your story brother, I have subscribed. If you don't mind me asking - I understand that you're currently in Norway. Are you working towards getting permanent residency or citizenship and if so what would be the steps?
@Robdoesitall I'm working on something similar but they're asking me for an original police clearance letter from my home country. Is there any way around this?
@@Robdoesitall thanks man I’m currently on probation but am cleared with my PO, I had my passport before my arrest and it was never revoked - think I’ll be good ?
I was looking into the UK and it was saying if you have a record that you should apply for a visa. Did you do that? Or just wing it and go with a passport? Lol my shits 13 years old now so think I would be ok but idk
So anyone on here with felony convictions ever travel to mexico or jamaica?? Wanting to go on a cruise to honduras but most of them have atleast 1 stop in mexico or jamaica .. my convictions are over 20 years old
Yup! I’ve been to Mexico many times and to the Caribbean 3 times although never specifically to Jamaica, but I do know felons that have been to Jamaica. As long as you have your passport, you’re good!
@@Robdoesitall There are NO restrictions in Jamaica. Mexico is a 'don't ask - don't tell' country and as long as you keep your nose clean - you are okay. DO NOT drive in Mexico however. If you are a felon and get pulled over for ANYTHING in Mexico as a prior US Felon, not ONLY will you get sent back to the US automatically, you COULD spend years in a Mexico prison simply waiting to go before a Judge and then be extradited to the US.
@@bkas28 I don't believe the method for denial is through Interpol, per se. However, "now-days" some countries will have their own systems for checking an individual's criminal history which is NOT 'Interpol' related. They have software which is connected to a database used to check the background of every person who enters a country. The process is streamlined through your passport digital system. Generally, Interpol is used when a warrant is issued to obtain custody of an individual and bring him/her back to the country of origin where the warrant was issued. However, if you do not have an actual warrant out on you, it is likely they have access to a built criminal background check database which they use to check criminal histories and deny entry. It can be troublesome especially when traveling with friends and loved ones as they will be allowed entry while you will be held or boarded back on a return flight to your country of origin - or simply refused entry at the border. When a person is refused entry into a country, it is called being "denied entry" or "found inadmissible" depending on the legal context, essentially meaning they are not allowed to enter the country due to not meeting the required immigration criteria. In immigration law, "inadmissible" is the more precise term used to describe someone who is not permitted to enter a country due to various reasons like criminal history, health concerns, or security risks. When someone is deemed inadmissible, they are usually stopped at the border and may be questioned by immigration officials before being denied entry. Common reasons for being denied entry include having a criminal record, lacking proper documentation, being considered a security threat, or having a medical condition that could pose a public health risk. Sadly, being denied entry into a country can 'red flag' you for entry into the same country again in the future as well as other countries accessing the same database. I'm not a legal expert - but I hope this helps in some way.

Man! So do I. I know you have to apply for a visa online to get to Japan. They may have questions regarding a criminal history. I heard Japan was strict about it, so I might not be able to go. I hope I can though!
@@Robdoesitall from my extensive research due to the U.S being on the Visa Exemption list the only time you need to apply for a visa is if your staying more than 90 days if your staying less than 90 days you don’t need a visa
@@Robdoesitall I also asked someone from Japan and they said you don’t need a Visa I asked if they can verify you have a criminal record if you don’t disclose it I’m still waiting for a reply on that one
@@Robdoesitall ok so it’s a little complicated: So from my understand upon entering Japan you’ll have to fill out a form you can do it by paper but they have a site called “visit Japan web” and basically what it is is stating your reasons for coming how long you’ll stay etc it’s just to get through customs and immigration everyone has to do it. Now on the paper it does ask have you been convicted of a crime but that’s the tricky part from all my research Japan has a strict law on personal information so if you click yes they’ll ask you about it and you just tell them the circumstances surrounding the charges and they make their decision but if you click no I’m not sure what happens from my research according to lawyers etc they have no way to verify that you’re lying or telling the truth because they don’t have a U.S criminal database to just run your name through but I’m not sure because I haven’t talked to anyone or ran across anyone who tried going with a background but to the best of my knowledge the only time they background check is if you’re applying for a visa there or if you’re in the county and you get arrested/stopped by police other than that they would have to go through the U.S to obtain your background but when you get there they run your prints and facial scan to see if you’re a international most wanted or if you have any warrants FROM Japan so to answer the question I believe we can just lie and say no and hope they don’t find out because worse case scenario if they find out they just detain you and extradite you back to the U.S so I was thinking of just saying no I don’t have a criminal record and hoping for the best hell I been lying to judges juries etc my whole life and I’ve gotten past them so as long as you keep your cool they won’t know unless you offer up that information to them
@@Robdoesitall only time you have to apply for a visa is if your trying to gain citizenship or staying more than 90 days any time less than that because of the U.S being on the Visa exemption list we can enter with just our passports but that’s the tricky part too because while you can get a passport with a criminal record it’s up to our government to grant us one with a criminal record
