Hello,

Has anyone travelled to Costa Ricca on Green Card? Do I need to get a VISA or something.

A green card can not be used for travel. You will need your passport.
Have fun

Hi,

Just checked on the Costa Rica website. For Pakistani Citizens we do not need a Visa for Costa Rica. We just need the passport and the green card.

I'm not sure abotu Costa Ricca, but you need to apply for a passport to visit Costa Rica (sorry, had to) You can get an application form off the internet, or visit your local post office. Just FYI- they take about a month to process.

If you still have a valid passport from your country of origin then yes you can with the passport and green card.

I really doubt it,
but I think you can travel to Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands.

You should be able to but mostly depends on what passport you hold right now. I travel to Costa Rica a lot since I have a house there and I believe their travel laws are pretty lax. I see a lot of foreigners in the airport.

The green cart will help you get back into USA....

passport and exit ticket out of country within 90 days or 3 months of arrival, have to be gone 3 days and then can re-enter again for up to 90 days, etc. Longer than that and it gets a little more tedious and there are exemptions, restrictions, and what not.
