U.S. Visitor Visa

Generally, if you want to visit the United States you must first obtain a nonimmigrant visitor visa. Travelers from certain countries may be exempt from this requirement. For more information about USA visa requirements and procedures, see the U.S. Department of State and Customs and Border Protection (CBP) at www.cbp.gov.

If you want to travel to the United States for reasons other than business or pleasure, you must apply for a USA visa in the appropriate category. This includes if you want to study, work as a crew member or journalist, etc.,

If you are planning to visit the United States, you should be prepared to demonstrate the following:

• Your visit  to the U.S. will be temporary;
• You will depart at the end of your authorized stay or any extension granted by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services;
• You are in possession of a valid passport;
• You maintain a foreign residence that you have no intention of abandoning;
• You are able to support yourself financially while in the United States;

There are two types of non immigrant USA visas available for people who want to visit the United States.

The B-1 visa is for individuals who wish to visit the United States temporarily for business purposes, (e.g. conferences) or for medical treatment, or to accompany a family member who requires medical treatment.

The B-2 visa is for individuals who wish to visit the United States temporarily or to visit family or friends.
