You likely don't need a visa
You don't need a visa to visit the Federated States of Micronesia (FSM) as a tourist. The FSM's own immigration rules don't require an entry permit for a visit of 30 days or less, and under the amended Compact of Free Association, the FSM's Embassy says United States citizens need only a valid passport to be granted entry, you don't need to show funds or onward travel like other visitors do. If you don't already hold a longer-stay entry permit, fill in the Arrival and Departure Record your carrier gives you before you land. If you want to stay longer than 30 days, you can apply for an entry permit valid for up to a year from the FSM Division of Immigration and Labor before you travel.
