VISAS
Generally, a citizen of a foreign country who wishes to enter the United States must first obtain a visa. Visitor visas are nonimmigrant visas for persons who want to enter the United States temporarily for tourism (visa category B-2).
Visa Waiver Program (VWP)
The VWP enables most citizens or nationals of participating countries* to travel to the US for tourism or business for stays of 90 days or less without obtaining a visa. In order to travel without a visa on the VWP, you must have authorization through the Electronic System for Travel Authorization (ESTA) prior boarding a US bound air or sea carrier.
