The Department of Homeland Security announced Qatar has been designated into the U.S. Visa Waiver Program (VWP).
Additional Information: On Sept. 20, 2024, the Secretary of Homeland Security, in consultation with the Secretary of State, designated Qatar as a country that is eligible to participate in the VWP. Qatar will be the 42nd member of the program. Participating countries are reviewed at least biennially, as required in statute, to ensure they continue to meet all program requirements.
“The Visa Waiver Program is one of our most successful security initiatives. Qatar’s participation in the program increases information sharing regarding one of the world’s busiest travel and transfer hubs, strengthening the security of the United States. … Qatar’s fulfillment of the stringent security requirements to join the Visa Waiver Program will deepen our strategic partnership and enhance the flow of people and commerce between our two countries. Qatar’s entry will make travel between the United States and Qatar safer, more secure, and easier for both Americans and Qataris,” said Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro N. Mayorkas.
