As of June 9, 2025, several travel bans are in effect in the United States, which continue to affect immigration and international travel. On June 4, 2025, the U.S. government announced new or extended travel restrictions impacting multiple countries, including Myanmar, Laos, and Pakistan.
These bans mean that nationals of the affected countries face suspensions or heightened vetting for entry into the U.S. The impacts are significant: many visa applicants from these regions have had their applications put on hold or denied due to the bans. Anyone from or traveling through the affected countries should stay informed about the latest restrictions and consult with an immigration attorney if they have pending U.S. travel or immigration plans. The situation remains fluid, so changes to these policies could occur as legal challenges and diplomatic discussions continue.
