Introduction:
At some point, many people always encourage travelers from developed nations to get a US visa. It opens doors for a lot of other nations. With a valid US visa, more and more countries are providing visa exemptions. This list is fast-growing. If you are worried that your passport’s VISA-FREE list is just too short, then get a US visa. To your VISA-FREE list, it will add about 49 countries. This is how you give more “power” to your “powerless” passport.
In this blog, Click2visas provides the details about the list of countries you can visit with a valid US visa.
Why do countries give US visa holders a visa exemption?
Many countries give visa exemption to the US visa holders mainly due to the below reason,
Strict screening: There is a very stringent screening procedure for US visa applicants. One of the toughest visas to obtain, too, is the US visa. If you have a US visa, then you’ve already been screened fairly well. In other words, you do not have a criminal record or any unlawful immigration plans.
Strong relations to your country of home: The request for a US visa also means that you have close links to your home country. This is to stop illegal immigration. If you were to stay somewhere illegally, you would have lived illegally in the US itself. So, getting a U.S. visa re assures them that you have no intention of illegally staying in their country.
Financial reasons: There is no infrastructure or funding for developing countries to screen applicants. There is no need to test you again if a nation like the USA has already screened you. It costs a decent chunk of money to get a screening procedure that is as foolproof as the U.S.
Which visas from the US are eligible?
