Overview

The Trump Administration may continue to further expand travel restrictions to citizens of 36 additional countries from entering the US. Earlier this month, the Administration issued a proclamation banning the entry of citizens from 12 countries.

The additional countries that could be impacted include: Angola, Antigua and Barbuda, Benin, Bhutan, Burkina Faso, Cabo Verde, Cambodia, Cameroon, Cote D’Ivoire, Democratic Republic of Congo, Djibouti, Dominica, Ethiopia, Egypt, Gabon, The Gambia, Ghana, Kyrgyzstan, Liberia, Malawi, Mauritania, Niger, Nigeria, Saint Kitts and Nevis, Saint Lucia, Sao Tome and Principe, Senegal, South Sudan, Syria, Tanzania, Tonga, Tuvalu, Uganda, Vanuatu, Zambia, and Zimbabwe.

Though details are yet to be released, we expect that any travel restrictions would not apply to permanent residents and to dual nationals travelling on a passport from a non-restricted country. Citizens of countries that may be restricted who do not have dual citizenship and a passport from a non-restricted country, are advised to refrain from international travel in the near future and/or return to the U.S. at their earliest convenience.
