Trump’s Measure Requires Visitors From High Migration Risk Countries to Deposit US$ 15 Thousand, Which Will Be Refunded If They Leave the Country on Time

Tourists from certain countries will have to pay a security deposit to enter the United States starting on the 20th of this month. The requirement, announced by the U.S. government, imposes a deposit of US$ 15,000 (approximately R$ 83,000) as a condition for obtaining a visa. The measure aims to combat the illegal stay of foreigners and is part of a pilot project that will be tested for 12 months.

The new immigration policy affects countries classified with a high overstay rate, meaning where there is a higher number of visitors who enter the country legally but do not return by the date specified on the visa. The proposal was approved during the Trump administration and is now being implemented, with the goal of reducing the number of illegal immigrants.

According to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS), the amount will be fully refunded if the tourist returns within the specified timeframe. The measure does not affect all countries, but is limited to nations included in a specific list of high migration risk, which will be updated based on the program’s performance evaluation.

US$ 15 Thousand Deposit Will Be Refunded to Those Who Follow the Rules

The deposit amount can be paid in advance through authorized means, such as international credit cards, and will be managed by agencies linked to the U.S. immigration system. If the visitor fails to return by the deadline, the amount will be retained and used to cover deportation and migration control actions.

U.S. authorities explained that the initiative is part of a broader effort to reinforce compliance with immigration laws. The new rule aims to deter fraud in the use of tourist visas, which is currently one of the most common ways for illegal immigrants to enter the country.

The measure will be evaluated over the course of a year, and, according to the government, may be adjusted or expanded depending on the observed results. Additionally, the cost-benefit relationship and impact on diplomatic relations with affected countries will be assessed.

Rules Aim to Combat Illegal Stay and Strengthen Migration Control

The initiative is part of the strategy to strengthen border control and legal entry of foreigners, especially at a time of increasing attention to migration policies. According to experts, many illegal immigrants in the U.S. do not cross borders clandestinely, but remain beyond the allowed timeframe on regular visas.

The expectation is that the deposit will function as a temporary guarantee, deterring abuses and encouraging visitors to respect the country’s rules. Despite criticisms from some human rights organizations, the government claims that the model is similar to that used in rental contracts or court agreements.

The information was published by the portal Band, based on an official statement from the U.S. government. According to the report, the amount of the deposit is considered high enough to prevent abuses, yet still within the payment capacity of tourists.

Adorando esse governo louco.
Ferrando com todos os cretinos sabujos que, de alguma forma, o apoiaram.
Quero mais e que se ferem, tanto os ****óides daqui, como os de lá.
kkkkkkk
