Background

In September 2017, travel restrictions were placed on Chad, along with Iran, Libya, Syria, Yemen, and Somalia, under the Presidential Proclamation titled “Enhancing Vetting Capabilities and Processes for Detecting Attempted Entry into the United States by Terrorists or other Public-Safety Threats”. Under the proclamation, restrictions and limitations were placed on nationals of Chad in securing B-1, B-2, B-1/B-2, immigrant visas and diversity lottery visa.
