U.S residents require a United States passport to travel in and out of the country.

The most effective tool for this continues to be a DNA test to receive citizenship. Furthermore, it is the only method approved by the Bureau of Consular Affairs<\/a>. Fortunately, these tests offer impressive accuracy, exceeding 99.99%.<\/span><\/p> A conventional method is used to collect DNA evidence, using a buccal swab to extract cells from the cheeks.
