The American visa is an essential document for most foreigners who wish to visit the United States, since unless there is an exemption to apply for it, the authorities will request it as part of the mandatory checks so that entry can be authorized.
However, citizens born in more than 40 countries who meet the requested requirements will be able to process an alternative permit to enter for tourism or business purposes for up to 90 days, without needing to have an American visa.
Who can enter the United States without an American visa and what they must do to be able to do so
Through the Visa Waiver Program (VWP), citizens of the member nations will be able to process another entry authorization, different from the American visa, to travel for up to 90 days for the purposes specified above.
For this, it is necessary that they submit an ESTA application through the Electronic System for Travel Authorization. If approved, this document fulfills the same role as the tourist visa and will remain valid for up to two years, during which multiple visits can be made.
