Additional Countries Designated for the Visa Waiver Program
The Department of Homland Security added the following countries to the Visa Waiver Program (VWP): Czech Republic, Estonia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, the Republic of Korea, and the Slovak Republic effective November 17, 2008.
Citizens and Nationals of these countries can simply get on a plane without having to apply for a visa at a U.S. consulate.
In addition to the seven new countries, the following are existing VWP countries: Andorra, Australia, Austria, Belgium, Brunei, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Liechtenstein, Luxembourg, Monaco, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Portugal, San Marino, Singapore, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom.
Generally, citizens of these countries are considered fortunate that they do not have to submit to the cumbersome US visa application process, which results in many denials.
