    Hello n:

    Yes, you can get a passport. There aren't any listings of countries that won't allow a felon in.

    A US passport is Federal ID - anyone can get a Federal passport.

    You would have to Google the various countries to determine which will allow a felon to enter.

    Please post your question once - multiple postings will not generate different answers.

    I have combined your two posts please don't post things twice

    As noted being a felon does not stop you from getting a passport.

    The visa to enter another country is the issue, that is not just a felon, but what the crime was and even how long ago it was, that is a country by country issue.

    Lets not forget that there are exceptions. If someone owes child support arrears they can deny you a passport. I guess that means you have less rights then a felon.. lol

    In doing research I found this link interesting.
