When you have a criminal record, you generally have to declare it on arrival cards into the country. You may need to get a visa beforehand or some kind of document that permits you to travel to that country. The US in particular I believe have issues with any type of criminal record.
The purpose of this post is to document places I have been and where, if at all, there has been an issue:
Hungary - Before I travelled to Hungary, I sent emails approx 2 months prior to my travel date to the Australian Embassy in Hungary and the Hungarian Embassy in Australia to ask first whether I would be likely to experience any problems. Neither bothered to reply to my email! I also rang the embassy in Hungary and was told someone would call me back and of course, noone did. When I eventually travelled to Hungary, there were no forms to complete on the aeroplane or upon arrival, and I went straight through the 'nothing to declare' aisle without any problems.
Germany: I only passed through here on the way to Hungary. There were no arrival entry cards to complete and when I arrived the 'something to declare' queue was closed off and everyone was going straight through the 'nothing to declare' section. Not sure if that was because I arrived at 6am in the morning and they just didn't have enough staff at that time, but there were no problems.
Thailand: I travelled here in 2012 and had no issues here. No questions asked about criminal record.
