Eritrea passport United States
United States does not currently admit travellers holding a Eritrea passport. This is a government policy, not a paperwork problem, and no agent or service can work around it.
- Status
- No admission
- Stay permitted
- The visa's validity is set by a reciprocity schedule that differs by nationality. Length of stay is decided by the officer at the port of entry.
- Government fee
- Nothing to pay
- Typical decision
- No application
What United States asks for
- Passport valid for at least six months beyond your intended stay
- Form DS-160 confirmation page
- Appointment confirmation
- One photograph meeting the published specification
- Evidence of funds and of ties to your home country
- Any documents supporting the purpose of the trip
Worth knowing
- The DS-160 form is free to fill in. Only the $185 MRV processing fee is payable, and it is paid to the designated bank, never to an agent's account.
- No agent can obtain an earlier interview date. Appointment slots are released by the consulate.
- A separate issuance fee may apply after approval, depending on your nationality's reciprocity schedule.
How long it takes
The wait is almost entirely the interview appointment, not the decision. Appointment waits are published per embassy and can run to many months.
