US Government Excludes UK, Nigeria And Others From Visa-Free Entry For 2025
The United States has excluded Nigeria and other African countries from a list of eligible countries for its 2025 Visa Waiver Program (VWP).
It also removed United Kingdom from the program but remains eligible under specific conditions.
Other countries removed from the list include: Nigeria, Ghana, or South Africa.
The VWP list remains mostly unchanged, though Romania has been added in a significant update.
According to the U.S. Bureau of Consular Affairs, the Visa Waiver Program allows most citizens of eligible countries to travel to the U.S. for tourism or business for up to 90 days without requiring a visa.
The agency stated, “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 visa.”
The 2025 Visa Waiver Program has also introduced policy updates on permit eligibility, revisions to the list of participating countries, and new travel policies.
