Will a DWI DUI prevent me from going to Countries other than Canada?
DWI/DUI convictions could have an effect on your ability to enter countries, other than Canada. Every country treats DWI/DUI’s, and even other alcohol related offenses, differently. Depending on how that country treats a DWI/DUI, you could be inadmissible.
This means that, even if you buy plane tickets and show up at the border, you could be turned away. If you have been convicted of a DWI/DUI and are planning to travel outside of the country, you need to do your research first. Your best option would be to work with a travel agent, who could give you the information you need, or go straight to the source and contact that country’s embassy or consulate in your state to find out.
If you are charged with a DWI and are worried about your ability to travel internationally in the future, your best bet is to contact an attorney. The experienced attorneys at Gerald Miller, P.A. will sit down with you and help come up with the best strategy for your case.
