The policy is specifically aimed at applicants from nations with high visa overstay rates, poor document security systems, or those providing Citizenship by Investment with no residency.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"New_Visa_Rules_USA\"><\/span><b>New Visa Rules USA<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The new regulations for US visa applicants are part of a larger program to guarantee that visitors depart the country before their visa has expired. A number of countries have been marked by the US government for excessive overstay violations, and this bond system serves as financial insurance. If the visitor follows the terms of the visa and departs on schedule, the bond should be returned. The bond, though, will be lost if the individual overstays or violates the new US visa rules.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The rules focus mainly on B-1 and B-2 visa applicants who are nationals of countries that are selected for their high visa overstay rates. They will be listed by the Department of State prior to the commencement of the program. Visitors from Visa Waiver Program (VWP) nations will be exempt. In addition, individual consular officers will also be able to determine whether or not a bond is warranted for each applicant. Exceptions can be made on an individual&#8217;s record, history, or level of connection to his or her native country.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Effect_of_New_Visa_Rule_on_Indian_Travelers\"><\/span><b>Effect of New Visa Rule on Indian Travelers\u00a0<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While the new US visa rules for India have not been officially announced , visitors coming from India should remain informed. India is not typically included in the list of countries with extremely high visa overstay rates, but any future announcements from the US Department of State could modify this. If applied to Indian citizens, this regulation would make international travel to the US costlier. For Indian tourists who buy <a href=\"https:\/\/www.indianeagle.com\/flight\/tickets\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">international flight tickets<\/a>, it will be necessary to know about this bond requirement when planning trips.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Changes_in_Other_Visa_Policies\"><\/span><b>Changes in Other Visa Policies<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is among many new rules for visa in the USA adopted recently.
