US Waives Bond Requirement for Foreign World Cup Ticket Holders

In a significant policy shift, the Trump administration has announced that foreign fans holding tickets to the World Cup will no longer be required to pay visa bonds of up to $15,000 to enter the United States. This decision applies to ticket holders from various countries, particularly those in Africa, and aims to facilitate easier access for international fans. The administration confirmed that this change is designed to welcome global supporters without the financial burden of high bond deposits.
