General Visa Info
Puerto Rico follows the same entry rules as the mainland U.S. If you need a visa to enter the U.S., you’ll need one for Puerto Rico too. Obtaining your visa to enter Puerto Rico may take several months. Applicants should consult the U.S. Department of State’s website to determine first if you need a visa or visa renewal, to schedule an appointment for an interview and to determine processing wait times.
If you are experiencing significant visa delays, please fill out the IVO visa survey. This will allow the International Visitors Office (IVO) to bring cases to the attention of the U.S. Department of State.
