Generally, an ACD is not a conviction for immigration purposes. Nevertheless, some offenses are grounds of inadmissibility even without a conviction.

I encourage you to contact an immigration attorney before you travel so that the details of the offense can be reviewed to ensure that you will not encounter a problem when reentering the U.S. after your travels. Additionally, you should not travel without the certificate of disposition in case an immigration officer asks for it at a point of entry.
