It's a good idea to keep a valid passport around no matter if you live in North America or Europe. Doesn't hurt to be prepared.

Good luck getting one right now, they fired everyone who's not a cop

Edit: I've been corrected, passports are going it seems. I wonder how visas are...

Go get one, it's only a question of time when you can't anymore.

Better hurry and get it before they make it practically or literally impossible for everyone except the most privileged..

It's only a matter of time until they stop letting us out

By the time you realize you need to have a passport, you should have already gotten one. I got my first passport in 2000. It took like a week. I lost it and had to get a new one in 2007. I got grilled by Homeland Security in a windowless office about whether or not I was familiar with the terrorist cells in the country I was vacationing in because it was a country with a significant Muslim population. I can’t imagine what it’s like now.

Sign up for some exchange program in a neutral country, buy a round-trip ticket, and just never come back.

Incredible to think that something like 65% of Americans have NEVER left the country, not even to Canada or Mexico. More impressive, even, is that like 40% have left their home STATE.

I just picked up my first passport in my entire life. I’m trying to get away from this hell hole.

I renewed my US passport about 6 months ago. I was eligible to renew online. Cost around $130 if I remember correctly. The online process was actually really easy and it came in the mail only a few weeks later (2-3 weeks). Highly recommend renewing online if you meet the eligibility requirements.

it is still very easy to get a passport. I helped a friend get theirs last month, and more over the years.

don't listen to any of the ignorant comments saying it's difficult to get one; they don't know what they're talking about.

you can do it online or in person at a US Post office.

fill out the application form, takes maybe 20 minutes tops, pay the fee (165$), they take your picture, you will get your passport in the mail in a couple of weeks, it lasts for 10 years, renewable on the go from embassies and consulates.

If you have any questions about passports or traveling, fire away.

Or maybe a psspsspssport?

What good would it do? Unless you’re planning to overstay a tourist passport entry and become an illegal in that country?

Americans are starting to self deport to discover new worlds.

I got mine very recently and I'm so happy about it. I'm trying to get my family members to get it as well but they refuse to, it's upsetting.
