The United States has introduced a new visa bond policy that may affect Nigerians applying for tourist and business visas.

Under the rule, some applicants may be required to pay a refundable bond ranging from $5,000 to $15,000 as part of the visa process.

The policy is aimed at reducing visa overstays and strengthening immigration controls. Paying the bond does not guarantee that a visa will be approved.

If granted, the bond is expected to be refunded once the traveler leaves the U.S. on time and follows all visa conditions.
