AGP Executive Report
Last update: 9 hours agoU.S. Visa Hub Overhaul (Djibouti Included): The U.S. State Department plans to cut visa-processing embassies and consulates across Africa from nearly 50 to 20 “hub” cities, with the change expected to start in June. Djibouti City is named as one of the full-processing hubs, alongside places like Addis Ababa, Nairobi, Lagos, Accra, Dakar, Kigali, and others. Travel Cost Warning: Applicants from countries without a hub may have to travel to a designated city for interviews and biometric steps, raising costs and adding delays for tourists, students, and business travelers. Regional Travel Ripple: The restructuring is part of a broader U.S. immigration crackdown and comes as consular staffing is also being reduced worldwide.
