Planning a Trip to Puerto Rico (2024)

No passport needed for U.S. travelers

Since Puerto Rico is a territory of the United States, American citizens and permanent residents don't need a passport to travel to the Island. However, they must always travel with a valid ID, such as driver license or a state ID card.

Getting Here & Around

With two international airports and several smaller, regional airports, getting to Puerto Rico by air is easy. Millions of passengers also arrive in Puerto Rico each year by cruise, and the San Juan Cruise Port is ranked among the top 20 ports in the world.

Once you've arrived, you can comfortably get around San Juan by taxi, rideshare, or public transportation. Or, explore more of Puerto Rico by renting a car! You can drive all the way around the Island in about five or six hours, but you'll want to stop and enjoy beaches, historic sites, and delicious food along the way.
