Hello, I would like some help. My husband has the 2 yeard green card, which we are sending the I-751 in mid Feb to start the process for the new card. We are planning a trip to Switzerland, France and Italy. We would be landing at Switzerland and then coming back from Switzerland as well? With him being a resident of the US, would he need any permission to enter Europe. Like for example, a visa to enter those countries?

What is his citizenship? D.R.? If so he will need a Visa. You can apply for a Schengen visa at the consulate of any of those three countries you [plan to visit. It allows him to enter into most European countries. Having the GC makes getting the visa much easier.
