To be eligible for a visa waiver under the VWP, the traveler seeking admission to the United States must be a national of a country that has been designated by the <a href="U.S._Secretary_of_Homeland_Security" class="mw-redirect" title="U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security">U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security</a>, in consultation with the <a href="U.S._Secretary_of_State" class="mw-redirect" title="U.S. Secretary of State">Secretary of State</a>, as a "program country". <a href="Permanent_residency" title="Permanent residency">Permanent residents</a> of designated countries who are not their nationals do not qualify for a visa waiver. The criteria for designation as program countries are specified in Section 217(c) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (<a href="Title_8_of_the_United_States_Code" title="Title 8 of the United States Code">8 U.S.C.</a> <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/8/1187">§ 1187</a>). The criteria stress passport security, a visitor visa refusal rate below 3%, and a reciprocal visa waiver for U.S. nationals, among other requirements.

All visitors from VWP countries must hold a <a href="Biometric_passport" title="Biometric passport">biometric passport</a>.<a href="#cite_note-17">[12]</a>

All travelers must have individual passports. It is not acceptable (for the VWP) for children to be included on a parent's passport.<a href="#cite_note-:0-18">[13]</a>

In principle, the passport must be valid for six months beyond the expected date of departure from the United States. However, the United States has agreements with a large number of countries to waive this requirement, including all VWP countries except Brunei.<a href="#cite_note-19">[14]</a><a href="#cite_note-:0-18">[13]</a>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Electronic_System_for_Travel_Authorization_(ESTA)">Electronic System for Travel Authorization (ESTA)</h3></div>

<div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main article: <a href="Electronic_System_for_Travel_Authorization" title="Electronic System for Travel Authorization">Electronic System for Travel Authorization</a></div>

All incoming passengers who intend to take advantage of the Visa Waiver Program are required to apply for a travel authorization through the <a href="Electronic_System_for_Travel_Authorization" title="Electronic System for Travel Authorization">Electronic System for Travel Authorization</a> (ESTA) online before departure to the United States, preferably at least 72 hours (3 days) in advance. This requirement was announced on June 3, 2008 and is intended to bolster U.S. security by pre-screening participating VWP passengers against terrorist or no-fly lists and databases.<a href="#cite_note-20">[15]</a> It is similar to Australia's <a href="Electronic_Travel_Authority_(Australia)" class="mw-redirect" title="Electronic Travel Authority (Australia)">Electronic Travel Authority</a> system. The authorization is mandatory for participating VWP nationals before traveling to the United States, but as with formal visas this does not guarantee admission into the United States since final admission eligibility is determined at U.S. ports of entry by <a href="U.S._Customs_and_Border_Protection" title="U.S. Customs and Border Protection">CBP</a> officers.

ESTA has an application fee of 4 <a href="United_States_dollar" title="United States dollar">USD</a>, and if approved, an additional fee of 17 USD is charged, for a total of 21 USD. An approved ESTA is valid for up to two years or until the traveler's passport expires, whichever comes first, and is valid for multiple entries into the United States.<a href="#cite_note-22">[f]</a><a href="#cite_note-estafaq-21">[16]</a>

When traveling to the United States by air or sea under the VWP with ESTA, the person must be traveling on a participating commercial carrier and hold a valid return or onward ticket, dated within 90 days.<a href="#cite_note-:0-18">[13]</a> The VWP does not apply at all (i.e. a visa is required) if a passenger arrives via air or sea on an unapproved carrier. ESTA is also required for travel by land.<a href="#cite_note-23">[17]</a>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Prior_travel_or_dual_nationality_in_certain_countries">Prior travel or dual nationality in certain countries</h3></div>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Other_requirements">Other requirements</h3></div>

Applicants for admission under the Visa Waiver Program:<a href="#cite_note-:0-18">[13]</a>

<ul><li>Must have complied with the conditions of all previous admissions to the United States and have not been found ineligible for a U.S. visa.</li>

<li>Must never have been convicted of, or arrested for, an offense or crime involving <a href="Moral_turpitude" title="Moral turpitude">moral turpitude</a><a href="#cite_note-25">[g]</a> or a controlled substance, or two or more crimes with a maximum aggregate sentence of five years' imprisonment or more, no matter how long ago. National regulations which normally expunge criminal records after a certain length of time (e.g. the <a href="Rehabilitation_of_Offenders_Act_1974" title="Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974">Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974</a> in the UK) do not apply.</li>

<li>Must not be otherwise inadmissible to the United States, such as on health or national security grounds.</li>

<li>Must be intending to visit the United States for a purpose of tourism, business or transit.</li></ul>

Applicants should display social and economic ties which bind them to their country of origin or may be refused entry.<a href="#cite_note-26">[19]</a>

Having been arrested or convicted does not in itself make a person ineligible to use the Visa Waiver Program. However, some U.S. embassies advise such persons to apply for a tourist visa even though there is no legal obligation to do so.<a href="#cite_note-:0-18">[13]</a>

Those who do not meet the requirements for the Visa Waiver Program must obtain a U.S. visitor visa from a U.S. embassy or consulate.<a href="#cite_note-:0-18">[13]</a>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Restrictions">Restrictions</h3></div>

Visitors under the VWP may stay for up to 90 days in the United States and cannot request an extension of the original allowed period of stay<a href="#cite_note-:0-18">[13]</a> (this practice is allowed to those holding regular visas).<a href="#cite_note-27">[20]</a><a href="#cite_note-28">[21]</a><a href="#cite_note-29">[22]</a> However, VWP visitors may seek to adjust status on the basis of either marriage to a U.S. citizen or an application for asylum.<a href="#cite_note-30">[23]</a>

<a href="U.S._Customs_and_Border_Protection" title="U.S. Customs and Border Protection">U.S. Customs and Border Protection</a> (CBP) officers determine admissibility upon the traveler's arrival. If one seeks to enter the United States under the VWP and is denied entry by a CBP officer at a port of entry, there is no path to appeal or review of the denial of entry.<a href="#cite_note-31">[24]</a>

Travelers can leave to neighboring jurisdictions (<a href="Canada" title="Canada">Canada</a>, <a href="Mexico" title="Mexico">Mexico</a> and the <a href="Caribbean" title="Caribbean">Caribbean</a>), but will not be granted another 90 days after reentry in the United States; instead they are readmitted to the United States for the remaining days granted on their initial entry.<a href="#cite_note-32">[25]</a> Transit through the United States is generally permitted, if the total time in the United States, Canada, Mexico and adjacent islands is less than 90 days. However, if for example the traveler is transiting the United States on the way to a 6-month stay in Canada, the VWP cannot be used, as the total time in the United States, Canada, Mexico and adjacent islands will be over 90 days. In this case the traveler should apply for a <a href="B_visa" title="B visa">B-1/B-2 visa</a>, or a <a href="C-1_visa" title="C-1 visa">transit visa</a>.<a href="#cite_note-:0-18">[13]</a>

There are restrictions on the type of employment-related activities allowed. Meetings and conferences in relation to the travelers' profession, line of business or employer in their home country are generally acceptable, but most forms of "gainful employment" are not. There are however poorly-classifiable exceptions such as persons performing professional services in the United States for a non-U.S. employer, and persons installing, servicing and repairing commercial or industrial equipment or machinery pursuant to a contract of sale.<a href="#cite_note-33">[26]</a> Performers (such as actors and musicians) who plan on performing live or taping scenes for productions in their country of origin, as well as athletes participating in an athletic event, are likewise not allowed to use the VWP for their respective engagements and are instead required to have an <a href="O1_visa" class="mw-redirect" title="O1 visa">O</a> or <a href="P_visa" title="P visa">P visa</a> prior to arrival. Foreign media representatives and journalists on assignment are required to have a nonimmigrant media (I) visa.<a href="#cite_note-34">[27]</a>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="History">History</h2></div>

<a href="United_States_Congress" title="United States Congress">Congress</a> passed legislation in 1986 to create the Visa Waiver Program with the aim of facilitating tourism and short-term business visits to the United States, and allowing the <a href="United_States_Department_of_State" title="United States Department of State">United States Department of State</a> to focus consular resources on addressing higher risks.<a href="#cite_note-:3-35">[28]</a> The United Kingdom became the first country to participate in the Visa Waiver Program in July 1988, followed by Japan in December 1988.<a href="#cite_note-36">[29]</a> In July 1989, France, Italy, Netherlands, Sweden, Switzerland and West Germany were added to the VWP.<a href="#cite_note-fr1997-37">[30]</a>

In 1991, more European countries joined the Program – Andorra, Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Luxembourg, Monaco, Norway, San Marino and Spain – as well as New Zealand (the first country from Oceania).<a href="#cite_note-fr1997-37">[30]</a> In 1993, Brunei became the second Asian country to be admitted to the Program.<a href="#cite_note-38">[31]</a>

On April 1, 1995, Ireland was added to the VWP.<a href="#cite_note-ie-39">[32]</a> In 1996, Australia and Argentina (the first Latin American country) joined,<a href="#cite_note-fr1997-37">[30]</a> although Argentina was later removed in 2002.<a href="#cite_note-ar-40">[33]</a> On September 30, 1997, Slovenia was added.<a href="#cite_note-fr1997-37">[30]</a> On August 9, 1999, Portugal, Singapore and Uruguay joined the program,<a href="#cite_note-fr1999-41">[34]</a> although Uruguay was subsequently removed in 2003.<a href="#cite_note-42">[35]</a>

Following the <a href="September_11_terrorist_attacks" class="mw-redirect" title="September 11 terrorist attacks">September 11 terrorist attacks</a>, the <a href="George_W._Bush_administration" class="mw-redirect" title="George W. Bush administration">George W. Bush administration</a> decided to tighten entry requirements into the United States, as a result of which legislation was passed requiring foreign visitors entering under the Visa Waiver Program to present a <a href="Machine-readable_passport" title="Machine-readable passport">machine-readable passport</a> upon arrival starting from October 1, 2003, and a <a href="Biometric_passport" title="Biometric passport">biometric passport</a> from October 26, 2004. However, as a number of VWP countries still issued non-machine readable passports (for example, more than a third of <a href="French_passport" title="French passport">French</a> and <a href="Spanish_passport" title="Spanish passport">Spanish</a> passport holders held a non-machine readable version), the implementation of this rule was postponed to October 26, 2004, with the exception of <a href="Belgian_nationality_law" title="Belgian nationality law">Belgian nationals</a>, as there were concerns about the security and integrity of <a href="Belgian_passport" title="Belgian passport">Belgian passports</a>.<a href="#cite_note-43">[36]</a> Likewise, the biometric passport requirement was also postponed to October 26, 2005, only to be further postponed by another year to October 26, 2006 at the request of the <a href="European_Union" title="European Union">European Union</a>, which raised concerns about the number of participating countries which would have been able to make the deadline.<a href="#cite_note-44">[37]</a> When the new rule came into force on that day, three countries (Andorra, Brunei and Liechtenstein) had not yet started issuing biometric passports.<a href="#cite_note-:3-35">[28]</a>

In November 2006, the U.S. government announced that plans for an "Electronic Travel Authorization" program (officially named "<a href="Electronic_System_for_Travel_Authorization" title="Electronic System for Travel Authorization">Electronic System for Travel Authorization</a>") would be developed so that VWP travelers can give advance information on their travels to the United States. In return, they will be given authorization electronically to travel to the United States, although it does not guarantee admission to the United States. This program is modeled on the <a href="Electronic_Travel_Authority_(Australia)" class="mw-redirect" title="Electronic Travel Authority (Australia)">Electronic Travel Authority</a> scheme that has been used in Australia for many years.<a href="#cite_note-45">[38]</a>

Argentina's participation in the VWP was terminated in 2002 in light of the <a href="Argentine_economic_crisis_(1999%E2%80%932002)" class="mw-redirect" title="Argentine economic crisis (1999–2002)">financial crisis</a> taking place in that country and its potential effect on mass emigration and unlawful overstay of its nationals in the United States by way of the VWP. Uruguay's participation in the program was revoked in 2003 for similar reasons. While a country's political and economic standing does not directly determine its eligibility, it is widely believed that nationals of politically stable and economically developed nations would not have much incentive to illegally seek employment and violate their visa while in the United States, risks that consular officers seriously consider in approving or denying a visa.

After the <a href="2004_enlargement_of_the_European_Union" title="2004 enlargement of the European Union">2004 enlargement of the European Union</a>, both the newly admitted countries and EU agencies began intensive lobbying efforts to include those new countries in the VWP. The U.S. government initially responded to those efforts by developing bilateral strategies with 19 candidate countries known as the Visa Waiver road map process.<a href="#cite_note-roadmap-46">[39]</a> The U.S. government began to accept the possibility of departing from the original country designation criteria – which had been contained within immigration law per se – and to expand them by adding political criteria, with the latter being able to override the former. This development began first with Bill S.2844<a href="#cite_note-47">[40]</a> which explicitly named Poland as the only country to be added to the VWP, and continued as an amendment to the <a href="S._2611" class="mw-redirect" title="S. 2611">Comprehensive Immigration Reform Act of 2006 (S.2611)</a>, whose Sec. 413, Visa Waiver Program Expansion,<a href="#cite_note-48">[41]</a> defined broader criteria that would apply to any EU country that provided "material support" to the multinational forces in <a href="Multinational_force_in_Iraq" class="mw-redirect" title="Multinational force in Iraq">Iraq</a> and <a href="International_Security_Assistance_Force" title="International Security Assistance Force">Afghanistan</a>. However, the definition of that "material support" would be met again only by Poland and Romania, a fact that was not favorably received by the other EU candidate countries.

During his visit to Estonia in November 2006, <a href="George_W._Bush" title="George W. Bush">President Bush</a> announced his intention "to work with our Congress and our international partners to modify our visa waiver program". In 2006, the Secure Travel and Counterterrorism Partnership Bill was introduced in the Senate but no action was taken and that bill, as well as a similar one introduced in the House the following year, died after two years of inactivity.<a href="#cite_note-49">[42]</a> The bill would have directed the Secretary of Homeland Security to establish a pilot program to expand the visa waiver program for up to five new countries that were cooperating with the United States on security and counterterrorism matters.<a href="#cite_note-50">[43]</a>

A June 2007 <a href="Hudson_Institute" title="Hudson Institute">Hudson Institute</a> Panel stressed the urgency of the inclusion of Central Europe in the VWP: "An inexplicable policy that is causing inestimable damage to the United States with its new Central and Eastern European NATO allies is the region's exclusion from the visa waiver program. As Helle Dale wrote in the spring issue of European Affairs: "Meanwhile, the problem is fueling anti-U.S. antagonisms and a perception of capricious discrimination by U.S. bureaucrats ---and damping the visits to the United States of people from countries with whom Washington would like to improve commercial and intellectual ties. Meanwhile, horror stories abound from friends and diplomats from Central and Eastern Europe about the problems besetting foreigners seeking to visit the United States. In fact bringing up the subject of visas with any resident of those countries is like waving a red flag before a bull." Visa waiver must be satisfactorily addressed and resolved at long last."<a href="#cite_note-51">[44]</a>

The <a href="Implementing_Recommendations_of_the_9/11_Commission_Act_of_2007" title="Implementing Recommendations of the 9/11 Commission Act of 2007">Implementing Recommendations of the 9/11 Commission Act of 2007</a> allowed the inclusion of new countries in the VWP with a visa refusal rate up to 10% (up from the standard requirement of 3%) if they satisfied certain other conditions, from October 2008.<a href="#cite_note-crs-52">[45]</a> With the relaxed criteria, eight countries were added to the program: Czech Republic, Estonia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Slovakia and South Korea in November 2008,<a href="#cite_note-53">[46]</a> and Malta in December 2008.<a href="#cite_note-54">[47]</a> <a href="Czech_Prime_Minister" class="mw-redirect" title="Czech Prime Minister">Czech Prime Minister</a> <a href="Mirek_Topol%C3%A1nek" title="Mirek Topolánek">Mirek Topolánek</a> called it "a removal of the last relict of Communism and the Cold War".<a href="#cite_note-55">[48]</a> However, from July 2009, the authority to include countries with such higher visa refusal rate became conditioned on the implementation of a system capable of matching the entry and exit from the United States of travelers under the VWP using biometric identifiers.<a href="#cite_note-crs-52">[45]</a> As such system was not implemented, the visa refusal rate requirement returned to 3%.

Greece officially joined the program on April 5, 2010.<a href="#cite_note-56">[49]</a><a href="#cite_note-57">[50]</a>

On October 2, 2012, Secretary <a href="Janet_Napolitano" title="Janet Napolitano">Janet Napolitano</a> announced the inclusion of Taiwan into the program effective on November 1, 2012.<a href="#cite_note-58">[51]</a> Only holders of passports with a <a href="National_identification_card_(Taiwan)" title="National identification card (Taiwan)">national identification number</a> would benefit from the visa waiver.<a href="#cite_note-59">[52]</a>

In 2013, there was conflict over the <a href="United_States-Israel_Strategic_Partnership_Act_of_2013" class="mw-redirect" title="United States-Israel Strategic Partnership Act of 2013">United States-Israel Strategic Partnership Act of 2013</a> whose Senate version specified that satisfaction of the requirements regarding reciprocal travel privileges for U.S. nationals would be subject to security concerns.<a href="#cite_note-60">[53]</a> Many members of the House of Representatives opposed the security language because it seemed to validate Israel's tendency to turn away Arab Americans without giving any reason. None of the other 37 countries in the visa waiver program had such an exemption.<a href="#cite_note-61">[54]</a>

<a href="Chief_Executive_of_Hong_Kong" title="Chief Executive of Hong Kong">Chief Executive of Hong Kong</a> <a href="Donald_Tsang" title="Donald Tsang">Donald Tsang</a> raised the issue of allowing holders of <a href="Hong_Kong_Special_Administrative_Region_passport" title="Hong Kong Special Administrative Region passport">Hong Kong Special Administrative Region passports</a> or <a href="British_National_(Overseas)_passport" title="British National (Overseas) passport">British National (Overseas) passports</a> to participate in the VWP during his visit to the United States in 2011, but proposals to allow this were not successful.<a href="#cite_note-62">[55]</a><a href="#cite_note-63">[56]</a> Hong Kong was the only jurisdiction with a higher <a href="Human_Development_Index" title="Human Development Index">Human Development Index</a> than the United States whose citizens could not enjoy the program. The visa refusal rate for Hong Kong dropped to 1.7% for <a href="HKSAR_passport" class="mw-redirect" title="HKSAR passport">HKSAR passport</a> and 2.6% for <a href="British_National_(Overseas)_passport" title="British National (Overseas) passport">British National (Overseas) passport</a> in 2012.<a href="#cite_note-64">[57]</a> Hong Kong met all VWP criteria but did not qualify because it was not legally a separate country, despite having its own passports and independent judicial system, monetary system and immigration control. In 2013, a bipartisan bill was introduced in Congress to allow Hong Kong to qualify for the VWP as if it were a country, but it was not further considered.<a href="#cite_note-65">[58]</a> On August 10, 2015, the <a href="Consulate_General_of_the_United_States%2C_Hong_Kong_and_Macau" title="Consulate General of the United States, Hong Kong and Macau">U.S. Consul General to Hong Kong and Macau</a>, <a href="Clifford_Hart" title="Clifford Hart">Clifford Hart</a>, said during an interview with <a href="South_China_Morning_Post" title="South China Morning Post">South China Morning Post</a> that the visa waiver was "not happening anytime soon", as the Visa Waiver law required the participant to be a "sovereign state" and Hong Kong was not independent, thus ending the possibility of Hong Kong joining the program. He also denied that the failed lobbying effort of the <a href="HKSAR_government" class="mw-redirect" title="HKSAR government">HKSAR government</a> on this issue was a result of the refusal of detaining <a href="Edward_Snowden" title="Edward Snowden">Edward Snowden</a> in 2013.<a href="#cite_note-scmp-66">[59]</a>

Chile joined the VWP on March 31, 2014.<a href="#cite_note-cl-67">[60]</a>

In 2014, the <a href="European_Union" title="European Union">European Union</a> pressured the United States to extend the Visa Waiver Program to its five member states that were not yet included in it (Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Poland and Romania).<a href="#cite_note-68">[61]</a> In November 2014, the Bulgarian government announced that it would not ratify the <a href="Transatlantic_Trade_and_Investment_Partnership" title="Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership">Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership</a> unless the United States lifted the visa requirement for its nationals.<a href="#cite_note-69">[62]</a> Due to incomplete U.S. reciprocity, in March 2017 the <a href="European_Parliament" title="European Parliament">European Parliament</a> approved a non-binding resolution calling on the <a href="European_Commission" title="European Commission">European Commission</a> to suspend the visa exemption for U.S. nationals to travel the <a href="Schengen_Area" title="Schengen Area">Schengen Area</a>.<a href="#cite_note-70">[63]</a> On May 2, 2017, the <a href="European_Commission" title="European Commission">European Commission</a> decided not act on the resolution and hoped to restart full visa reciprocity negotiations for the remaining EU member states with the <a href="First_presidency_of_Donald_Trump" title="First presidency of Donald Trump">new U.S. administration</a>.<a href="#cite_note-71">[64]</a>

In December 2018, ESTA was no longer processed in real time, and travelers were advised to apply at least 72 hours before departure.<a href="#cite_note-72">[65]</a>

In July 2019, U.S. Ambassador to Poland <a href="Georgette_Mosbacher" title="Georgette Mosbacher">Georgette Mosbacher</a> stated that "Poland would fully qualify for the Visa Waiver Program within 3 to 6 months after September 2019" depending on bureaucratic procedures.<a href="#cite_note-73">[66]</a> On October 4, 2019, U.S. President <a href="Donald_Trump" title="Donald Trump">Donald Trump</a> confirmed that the Department of State had formally nominated Poland for entry into the Visa Waiver Program.<a href="#cite_note-74">[67]</a> On November 11, 2019 Poland officially joined the Program and became its 39th member.<a href="#cite_note-75">[68]</a>

On February 12, 2021, U.S. Embassy in Croatia's Chargé d'Affaires Victoria Taylor announced on Twitter that the refusal rate for business and tourist visas in Croatia in 2020 dropped to 2.69%, marking a step forward for Croatia to join the VWP "in the near future." On August 2, 2021, <a href="United_States_Secretary_of_State" title="United States Secretary of State">Secretary of State</a> <a href="Antony_Blinken" title="Antony Blinken">Antony Blinken</a> announced that Croatia had been formally nominated to join the VWP.<a href="#cite_note-76">[69]</a><a href="#cite_note-77">[70]</a> On September 28, 2021, <a href="United_States_Secretary_of_Homeland_Security" title="United States Secretary of Homeland Security">Secretary of Homeland Security</a> <a href="Alejandro_Mayorkas" title="Alejandro Mayorkas">Alejandro Mayorkas</a> officially announced that Croatia would join the VWP before December 1, 2021.<a href="#cite_note-78">[71]</a> Croatia joined the VWP on October 23, 2021.<a href="#cite_note-hr-79">[72]</a>

In October 2020, the European Parliament repeated its request for the European Commission to suspend the visa exemption for U.S. nationals, and in March 2021, it filed a judicial action against the European Commission for its failure to act on the subject.<a href="#cite_note-eucourt-80">[73]</a> In September 2023, the <a href="Court_of_Justice_of_the_European_Union" title="Court of Justice of the European Union">Court of Justice of the European Union</a> dismissed the judicial action brought by the European Parliament, ruling that the European Commission was not obligated to suspend the visa exemption for U.S. nationals.<a href="#cite_note-eucourt-80">[73]</a>

On July 6, 2023, the validity of new ESTA applications by nationals of Brunei was reduced to one year.<a href="#cite_note-estafaq-21">[16]</a>

On September 27, 2023, Israel was designated to join the VWP by November 30, 2023.<a href="#cite_note-83">[76]</a> Israel joined the VWP on October 19, 2023.<a href="#cite_note-il-84">[77]</a>

In October 2017, U.S. officials discovered a massive <a href="Passport_fraud" title="Passport fraud">passport fraud</a> scheme in Hungary, in which hundreds of non-Hungarians obtained genuine <a href="Hungarian_passport" title="Hungarian passport">Hungarian passports</a>.<a href="#cite_note-HudsonPethro-98">[91]</a><a href="#cite_note-Morris-99">[92]</a> A <a href="U.S._Department_of_Homeland_Security" class="mw-redirect" title="U.S. Department of Homeland Security">U.S. Department of Homeland Security</a> report (obtained by the Washington Post and reported in May 2018) showed that of approximately 700 non-Hungarians who had obtained the passports, 85 had attempted to travel to the United States under false identites, 65 had been admitted to the United States through the VWP, and (as of October 2017) approximately 30 remained in the United States despite the efforts of U.S. authorities to locate and deport them.<a href="#cite_note-HudsonPethro-98">[91]</a> The fraud was enabled by a policy implemented in 2011 by Hungarian Prime Minister <a href="Viktor_Orb%C3%A1n" title="Viktor Orbán">Viktor Orbán</a>; under the policy, the Hungarian government provided passports to <a href="Hungarian_diaspora" title="Hungarian diaspora">ethnic Hungarians living outside Hungary</a>, who could prove that one of their ancestors was a Hungarian citizen, with the goal of expediting <a href="Naturalization" title="Naturalization">naturalization</a>.<a href="#cite_note-HudsonPethro-98">[91]</a><a href="#cite_note-Szandelszky-100">[93]</a> More than a million people obtained Hungarian citizenship through the program.<a href="#cite_note-Morris-99">[92]</a><a href="#cite_note-HudsonPethro-98">[91]</a> Because the program lacked stringent identity-verification procedures, it was abused by bad actors, including criminals and applicants who used forged documents to falsely claim Hungarian descent.<a href="#cite_note-Szandelszky-100">[93]</a><a href="#cite_note-HudsonPethro-98">[91]</a> Some who received Hungarian passports under the program were criminals without any connection to Hungary.<a href="#cite_note-Szandelszky-100">[93]</a>

U.S. officials were alarmed by the risks created by the program, including the risk that the passports might be used in drug smuggling, organized crime, illegal immigration, espionage, or terrorism.<a href="#cite_note-HudsonPethro-98">[91]</a> In October 2017, the U.S. government downgraded Hungary's status in the VWP to "provisional" and sought to develop a "cooperative action plan" within 45 days.<a href="#cite_note-HudsonPethro-98">[91]</a><a href="#cite_note-thesundaily-101">[94]</a> U.S. and Hungarian officials engaged in a dialogue for several years on resolving the security risks, but Hungarian authorities failed to resolve the issues to the U.S. government's satisfaction.<a href="#cite_note-Szandelszky-100">[93]</a> As a result, beginning in 2020 and 2021, the U.S. government barred Hungarian passport-holders who were not born in Hungary from obtaining ESTA pre-travel authorizations.<a href="#cite_note-102">[95]</a><a href="#cite_note-103">[96]</a> In August 2023, the U.S. government imposed additional restrictions on Hungary's participation in the VWP: the ESTA validity period for Hungarian passport-holders was reduced from two years to one year, and each ESTA on a Hungarian passport would be valid for only one entry to the United States.<a href="#cite_note-Szandelszky-100">[93]</a><a href="#cite_note-Morris-99">[92]</a>

Separate from the Visa Waiver Program, <a href="Title_8_of_the_United_States_Code" title="Title 8 of the United States Code">8 U.S.C.</a> <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/8/1182#d_4_B">§ 1182(d)(4)(B)</a> permits the Attorney General and the Secretary of State (acting jointly) to waive visa requirements for admission to the United States in nonimmigrant status for nationals of foreign contiguous territories or adjacent islands or for residents of those territories or islands who have a common nationality with those nationals. The regulations relating to such admissions can be found at <a href="Title_8_of_the_Code_of_Federal_Regulations" title="Title 8 of the Code of Federal Regulations">8 CFR</a> <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://www.ecfr.gov/current/title-8/section-212.1">212.1</a>.<a href="#cite_note-68FR5190-150">[134]</a>

Under this provision, nationals of the following jurisdictions may travel to the United States without a visa:

<ul><li> <a href="The_Bahamas" title="The Bahamas">Bahamas</a> – Nationals of the Bahamas do not need a visa to travel to the United States if they apply for admission at a <a href="United_States_border_preclearance" title="United States border preclearance">U.S. preclearance facility</a> located in the Bahamas.

<li> <a href="British_Virgin_Islands" title="British Virgin Islands">British Virgin Islands</a> – British Overseas Territories citizens of the British Virgin Islands may travel without a visa to the <a href="U.S._Virgin_Islands" class="mw-redirect" title="U.S. Virgin Islands">U.S. Virgin Islands</a>. They may also continue travel to other parts of the United States if they present a certificate issued by the <a href="Royal_Virgin_Islands_Police_Force" title="Royal Virgin Islands Police Force">Royal Virgin Islands Police Force</a> indicating no criminal record.<a href="#cite_note-8_CFR_212.1-108">[99]</a></li>

<li> <a href="Canada" title="Canada">Canada</a> – Canadian citizens do not need a visa to visit the United States under most circumstances.<a href="#cite_note-cabm-152">[136]</a> In addition, under the <a href="USMCA" class="mw-redirect" title="USMCA">USMCA</a> (and earlier <a href="NAFTA" class="mw-redirect" title="NAFTA">NAFTA</a>), they may obtain authorization to work under a <a href="TN_status" title="TN status">simplified procedure</a>.</li>

<li> <a href="Cayman_Islands" title="Cayman Islands">Cayman Islands</a> – British Overseas Territories citizens of the Cayman Islands do not need a visa if they travel directly from the territory to the United States and present a certificate issued by the <a href="Royal_Cayman_Islands_Police_Service" title="Royal Cayman Islands Police Service">Royal Cayman Islands Police Service</a> indicating no criminal record.<a href="#cite_note-8_CFR_212.1-108">[99]</a></li>

<li> <a href="Mexico" title="Mexico">Mexico</a> – Some nationals of Mexico do not need a visa to travel to the United States: government officials not permanently assigned to the United States and their accompanying family members, holding diplomatic or official passports, for stays of up to six months; members of the <a href="Kickapoo_people" class="mw-redirect" title="Kickapoo people">Kickapoo</a> tribes of Texas or Oklahoma, holding Form I-872, American Indian Card; and crew members of <a href="List_of_airlines_of_Mexico" title="List of airlines of Mexico">Mexican airlines</a> operating in the United States.<a href="#cite_note-8_CFR_212.1-108">[99]</a> Other nationals of Mexico may travel to the United States with a <a href="Border_Crossing_Card" title="Border Crossing Card">Border Crossing Card</a>, which functions as a visa and has similar requirements.<a href="#cite_note-153">[137]</a> Under the <a href="USMCA" class="mw-redirect" title="USMCA">USMCA</a> (and earlier <a href="NAFTA" class="mw-redirect" title="NAFTA">NAFTA</a>), they may also obtain authorization to work under a <a href="TN_status" title="TN status">simplified procedure</a>.</li>

<li> <a href="Turks_and_Caicos_Islands" title="Turks and Caicos Islands">Turks and Caicos Islands</a> – British Overseas Territories citizens of the Turks and Caicos Islands do not need a visa if they travel directly from the territory to the United States and present a certificate issued by the <a href="Royal_Turks_and_Caicos_Islands_Police_Force" title="Royal Turks and Caicos Islands Police Force">Royal Turks and Caicos Islands Police Force</a> indicating no criminal record.<a href="#cite_note-8_CFR_212.1-108">[99]</a></li></ul>

Restrictions on the use of the Visa Waiver Program do not affect this class of travelers unless separately provided for by statute or regulation. For example, a Canadian citizen who has briefly overstayed a previous visit to the United States (by less than 180 days) will still not require a visa for future visits, while a VWP national who overstays will become ineligible for the VWP for life and will need a visa for future visits. ESTA is not required from British Overseas Territories citizens using one of the above waivers with the respective territory's passport, but it is required if they use the VWP with a British citizen passport.

Until 2003, this visa waiver was granted not only to nationals of those countries and territories, but also to permanent residents of Bermuda and Canada who were nationals of countries in the <a href="Commonwealth_of_Nations" title="Commonwealth of Nations">Commonwealth of Nations</a> or <a href="Republic_of_Ireland" title="Republic of Ireland">Ireland</a>.<a href="#cite_note-68FR5190-150">[134]</a>

Under <a href="Compact_of_Free_Association" title="Compact of Free Association">Compacts of Free Association</a>, citizens of the following countries may enter, reside, study and work in the United States indefinitely without a visa. These benefits are granted to citizens from birth or <a href="Trust_Territory_of_the_Pacific_Islands" title="Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands">independence</a>, and to <a href="Naturalization" title="Naturalization">naturalized citizens</a> who have resided in the respective country for at least five years, excluding those who acquired citizenship by investment.<a href="#cite_note-154">[138]</a><a href="#cite_note-155">[139]</a>
