Visa Waiver Program (VWP)

The Visa Waiver Program (VWP) enables most citizens or nationals of participating countries* to travel to the United States for tourism or business for stays of 90 days or less without obtaining a visa.

Travelers must have a valid Electronic System for Travel Authorization (ESTA) approval prior to travel and meet all requirements explained below. If you prefer to have a visa in your passport, you may still apply for a visitor (B) visa.

Generally, a citizen of a foreign country who wishes to travel to the United States must first obtain a visa, either a nonimmigrant visa for a temporary stay, or an immigrant visa for permanent residence. Visitor visas are nonimmigrant visas for persons who want to enter the United States temporarily for business (B-1 visa), for tourism (B-2 visa), or for a combination of both purposes (B-1/B-2 visa).

OFAC Sanctions

OFAC sanctions are U.S. government regulations administered by the Office of Foreign Assets Control that restrict or prohibit financial transactions, trade, and services with certain countries, organizations, or individuals considered national security or foreign policy risks. These rules apply broadly to U.S. citizens, residents, companies, and any transactions involving the U.S. financial system, even when activities occur overseas. As a result, sanctions can affect international travel, payments, banking access, online services, and visa-related transactions. Sanctions programs may target entire countries or specific individuals and industries, and violations can lead to serious penalties, making compliance essential for travelers, businesses, and global remote workers.
