Answer
Yes, you can travel with H4 EAD, but:
- Need valid H4 visa stamp in passport to re-enter
- EAD card itself does not allow re-entry
- If H4 visa expired, must renew at U.S. consulate
- Bring H-1B spouse's I-797 and your H4 documents
Important: H4 visa stamp and H4 EAD are separate. You need valid visa stamp to re-enter, EAD is only for work authorization.
