US officials are considering restricting entry to citizens of 43 countries, including 11 countries that could be banned from entering.


According to the proposal under consideration, the administration of US President Donald Trump is considering listing 43 countries in three groups to restrict entry into the US, including the red group (banning citizens of the countries on this list from entering), the orange group (restricting visa issuance) and the yellow group (requiring 60 days to resolve information deficiencies), The New York Times reported on March 14.

Of these, citizens of 11 "red group" countries are banned from entering the US, including Afghanistan, Bhutan, Cuba, Iran, Libya, North Korea, Somalia, Sudan, Syria, Venezuela and Yemen.

US officials said the list was drawn up by the US State Department a few weeks ago and is likely to be adjusted, emphasizing that this is not an approved list.

Many of the countries in the red and orange groups are countries that the United States considers to be rivals or that Mr. Trump imposed travel restrictions on during his first term. However, there are also some new countries added. The reason for Bhutan’s red grouping is still unclear, The New York Times reported .

According to The Bhutanese newspaper, the above developments may be related to a number of incidents. In 2023, information emerged about a case of alleged “large-scale immigration fraud” in Nepal, according to which Nepalese citizens claimed to be “Bhutan refugees” to enter the US. Among them were Nepalese politicians. In another incident in December 2024, Asia News Network reported that more than 300 Bhutanese citizens, mostly students, crossed the border from Canada to enter the US.

In addition, data from the US Department of Homeland Security shows that about 200 Bhutanese citizens were arrested for illegal residence in the US between 2013 and 2022. In 2021 and 2024, US authorities arrested 51 Bhutanese citizens for violating immigration laws, according to The Bhutanese .

Bhutan has not commented on the above information.

According to information from the US State Department, Bhutan does not have formal diplomatic relations with the five permanent members of the United Nations Security Council, including the US. The US Embassy in New Delhi (India) has consular responsibilities in Bhutan and maintains contact with the Bhutanese Embassy in New Delhi.

Upon taking office, President Trump signed an executive order requiring the State Department to identify countries that need to screen information, assessing whether citizens from which countries have so much inaccurate information that access should be restricted.
