They don't go into the reason for the travel. What happened in the end? | |

The chances of being blocked by CBP are extremely small, but the consequences can include having your daughter prevented at the very last moment from boarding the flight to Guatemala. I do not know if flights to Guatemala are targeted by CBP for inspection. | |
Jun 28, 2021 at 18:02 | comment | added | Magda E | It expired in 2019 so returning with the expired passport is not an option. We're going to call the US consulate tomorrow (they are closed today for a Guate holiday) to see what turn around time is on ordinary US passport issuance is in Guatemala. I imagine they would not approve what my daughter wants to do (arrive in country with no valid US passport) but that doesn't mean she can't do it. Just trying to figure what might be best and what might go wrong. | |
Jun 28, 2021 at 16:49 | comment | added | Peter M | What @DavidSupportsMonica could be alluding to is that you can return to the US on an expired passport if it expires while you are out of the US. See #34 of the General Questions section of travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/passports/passport-help/… | |
