US to Impose Up to $15,000 Visa Bonds on Certain Visitors from Zambia and Malawi
The US has announced a new visa bond requirement of up to $15,000 for tourists and business travelers from Zambia and Malawi, aiming to curb visa overstays. This move, part of broader immigration tightening measures, has been criticized as unfair and burdensome, especially for genuine travelers from these poorer nations, and raises concerns about potential expansion of travel restrictions across Africa.
