US Imposes Up to $15K Visa Bond on Algeria, Senegal Fans for 2026 World Cup

Rabat  — Fans from several countries participating in this summer’s World Cup may face a US visa bond of up to $15,000 as a condition for visa issuance, aimed at guaranteeing compliance with tourist visa requirements for entry into the United States.

Algeria and Senegal are among the countries affected by this measure. According to The Athletic, nationals from certain countries — including Algeria, Cape Verde, Senegal, and Ivory Coast — traveling to the US on business or tourist visas (B-1 and B-2) have been subject to hefty bond payments following policy changes introduced by the Trump administration in January this year. 

While FIFA is trying to convince Trump’s administration to grant a special immunity for players and team management, the Policy has yet to outline granting immunity to athletes competing in this major sporting event. Most athletes are most likely to apply for the B-1 or B-2 visas during the tournament, same as fans.

The US States Department said in a statement that there is no procedure for visa applicants to apply for a waiver of the bond requirement. “Consular officers will determine whether a waiver would advance a significant national interest or humanitarian interest based on the applicant’s purpose of travel and employment.”

As of yet, the State Department has indicated that this program is designed to curb illegal immigration by tackling overstay rates, weaknesses in screening and vetting, and the potential for acquiring citizenship through investment without actual residency.

With the World Cup approaching, it remains unclear whether the Algerian and Senegalese players and official delegation members will be granted an exemption or immunity from this policy.
