Summary

• The U.S. Visa Waiver Program (VWP) allows nationals from specific countries to enter the United States for tourism or business purposes without the need for a visa, for stays of 90 days or less.

• The program has been an essential part of international travel for decades, providing a streamlined process for short-term visitors.

• In recent years, there has been growing momentum to expand the VWP to include more countries.

• This expansion promises to impact global travel, economic ties, and international relations, while also presenting challenges in terms of security and compliance with U.S. standards.

• This blog post explores the countries being considered for inclusion in the VWP, the criteria for eligibility, and the broader implications of these changes for global tourism and diplomatic relations.
