    Though it may seem like a world away—it is a tropical paradise, after all—Puerto Rico passport requirements don’t require U.S. citizens to have a passport in order to visit. As a U.S. Commonwealth, Puerto Rico is considered domestic travel from the continental Unites States, just as long as you don’t touch down in a foreign place or port before arriving.

    You will, however, be required to show proof of citizenship with a state-issued photo I.D. card, such as a driver’s license or a non-driving photo I.D.
