im going to puerto rico in may God willing on vacation. Puerto rico is a colony of the united states meaning the citizens are american citizens. if you were to travel there i think you will still need a u.s visa.
The primary language there is spanish they have lots i mean lots of good looking women in that country or state. the main food is rice and beans with roast pork they drink a lot of corona beer and they salsa dance. in the summers in ny they are usually loud and obnoxius with their music and inconsiderate attitudes. their culture is rich and they are very proud of it. a few years back they took a vote in the country to seperate from the u.s but most people wanted to stay as a colony of the u.s.
people from the islands around puerto rico risk thei lives to ride a boat there because they think they can get to teh u.s from there

What do you mean? I'm planning of going to Puerto Rico to study, Do they have embassy in Nigeria, if not how can I go about it?
Re: Puerto Rico by SapeleDon: 4:43am On Nov 15, 2011
@dirtygamer Puerto Rico is a US Territory, just like the US Virgin Island,Guam(which is close to Japan and Korea) and Northern Mariana Islands.

To go there you need a US VISA handled by the American Embassy. Puerto Rico is not a country but a territory.

Its just the same thing like the UK. You cannot apply for a Scottish Visa,Wales or British Visa as some people usually call it which is wrong. You can only apply for a United Kingdom visa because the UK has four countries inside it.(England,Northern Ireland,Scotland and Wales)this are the four countries that makes the UK, so it will be like you going round looking for a SCOTTISH EMBASSY as there is none.

To process your school in Puerto Rico you have to go through the US EMBASSY.

If you are staying in P\R legally, you don't need a visa to continental USA.

Puerto Rico is a country of its own and a u.s territory also. There is a big difference betweena Scotland and the rest in u.k versus u.s and Puerto Rico.

Puerto Rico citizens still has there own passport and can carry u.s passport if they wish so, Scotland doesn't.
Puerto Rico citizens are considered u.s nationals and not u.s citizens. You may go and research on the difference.

Good Luck

You can not say Puerto Rico is a state or the 51st state in U.S till she is properly annex just like Hawaii and Alaska is. They are still territory just like Gwan, America Virgin island and Antigua is. Infact all the territories has their individual or countries passports and can still obtain American passport if so wishes. It is the formal agreement with them with the U.S congrats.

They are all considered U.S nationals but not citizens with the right to vote but solely when they are in U.S soil of established residents example any U.S states.

Good Luck

You are absolutely wrong. They had a referendum for a Statehood and it didn't pass few years ago. Puerto Rico is a territory like Guam but not a State. If you don't believe me all you need to do is Google it. There are 50 States in US hence the 50 Stars on the American Flag. Puerto Ricans are American citizens just like people fro Guam. Intact, my Congressman Luis Gutierrez is a Puerto Rican.

It is soley depends on them. If they want to, they will vote on preposition on it and pass it on to the U.S congrats as a referendum. The congrats will vote on it and the 50 states will vote also. It only requires 2/3 of state vote before it makes it to the president's desk for signature. It takes time to annex.

Good Luck
