AGP Executive Report
Last update: 9 hours agoU.S. Visa Bonds Go Permanent: From Aug 3, the U.S. will make its refundable visa bond program permanent for business (B1) and tourism (B2) applicants from 50 countries, with deposits set at $10,000, $15,000, or up to $20,000 depending on the case—Djibouti is on the list. Regional Visa Hub Shift: The U.S. is also ending routine visa processing at many African posts from Aug 1, pushing applicants to designated hubs; Djibouti remains one of the continuing routine-service locations, while places like Abuja are being streamlined. Travel Planning Impact: For travelers from affected countries, this means more upfront financial planning and possibly different application routes before trips. Djibouti in the Mix: With Djibouti tied to both the bond list and the regional hub network, the changes could directly affect how visitors apply and schedule travel.
