Episode Details

African nations football fans and players may face a significant challenge for the 2026 FIFA World Cup in the U.S., as they must post a $15,000 bond for a B-one or B-two visa. This stems from a visa bond pilot program targeting countries with high overstay rates. FIFA is advocating for exemptions, but no special rules have been established yet. The bond is refundable if travelers leave before their visa expires or are denied entry, but it doesnt guarantee visa approval. The situation remains uncertain as preparations for the tournament continue.
