Travelling outside US

[loreocookie]

This is going to seem like a stupid question but here it goes.... I've never travelled outside the US before and I'd like to take a vacation to Jamaica. Would I need a passport for this?

Probably, although one is not necessary for short trips to some countries (like Mexico). I wouldn't consider leaving the U. S. without a passport!

Ive never been outside the us either. I'd like to go to Italy.

I have been to the British Virgin Islands. Some friends and I went last May. We stayed on a boat the whole week that we were there. It was really beautiful and relaxing. It's a very laid back there too. They are very catholic there too. Both of my cameras were stolen. Thank goodness that I was smart enough to bring disposable cameras with me. I would love to go back someday with my family.

ENTRY/EXIT REQUIREMENTS U.S. citizens traveling as tourists may enter Jamaica with a U.S. passport or a certified U.S. birth certificate and current, government issued photo identification. Persons traveling with U.S. passports tend to encounter fewer difficulties upon departure than those who choose to use other documents. Visitors must have a return ticket and be able to show sufficient funds for their visit. U.S. citizens traveling to Jamaica for work or extended stays are required to have a current U.S. passport and visa issued by the Jamaican Embassy or a Jamaican Consulate. Travelers must pay a departure tax when leaving the country.

I won't bother posting the source link since it won't let me.
