America will not open its doors easily: $15,000 bond on the way

The United States is preparing to make a significant change to business and tourist visa applications from certain countries. According to the new regulation prepared by the U.S. Department of State, citizens of specific countries may be required to deposit a "bond" ranging from $5,000 to $15,000 to obtain a visa.

In a statement released by the Department, it was noted that this new regulation will be announced to the public on Tuesday and that the policy will specifically cover citizens of countries where visa violations are frequent, security screening information is insufficient, or those that offer citizenship rights in exchange for investment.

The purpose of the legal regulation was stated as evaluating whether applicants meet the financial requirements for entry into the U.S. and managing the visa process in a more controlled manner.

Which countries will be affected by this practice and what the detailed list contains will become clear once the legal regulation is published.
