US EditionTrump expands travel ban, adding 5 more countries and imposing new limits on others
President Trump cited national security and vetting challenges in expanding the travel ban to 27 countries, including Palestinians with PA-issued documents and 15 with partial restrictions.
- President Donald Trump announced on Tuesday a proclamation expanding the US travel ban, including Palestinian Authority travel document holders, effective Jan. 1.
- Citing weak vetting and record-keeping, officials noted unreliable documents, high visa overstays, and said restrictions stay until affected countries show `credible improvements` with U.S. immigration authorities.
- Newly listed countries include Burkina Faso, Mali, Niger, South Sudan, Syria, Laos, and Sierra Leone, raising total bans to 19 and partial restrictions to 15.
- Most travelers from the fully banned countries are expected to be denied entry, and those with tickets should consult airlines and U.S. embassies and consulates; exemptions cover lawful permanent residents, diplomats, athletes and national-interest waivers.
- The move continues the stricter immigration framework that was a hallmark of President Donald Trump's first term, follows an Afghan national arrested over the Thanksgiving period, and recalls a 2017 policy upheld by the U.S. Supreme Court.
