C-1 Transit Visa
C-1 Transit Visa General Information: The C-1 Transit Visa is a nonimmigrant visa which allows
foreign nationals to enter into the United States while transiting to another
foreign country. The C-1 Transit Visa can be used to travel in and out of the
United States when your final destination is another country. Individuals with a
valid B-1 Business or B-2
Tourist Visa do not need to obtain a US Transit Visa. Any other valid
nonimmigrant visa may not be used to transit through the United States.
Individuals from Visa Waiver countries do not
need to obtain a C-1 Transit Visa. The Transit Without Visa (TWOV) program and
International-to-International (ITI) program were both suspended by the U.S.
Department of Homeland Security and U.S. Department of State on August 2nd,
2003.
C-1 Transit Visa Eligibility Requirements: Most foreign nationals traveling through the United
States to another foreign destination are eligible for a C-1 Transit Visa. C-1
Transit Visa holders may stay for a maximum of 29 days in the United States.
C-1 Transit Visa holders are required to leave the United States on the proposed
flight or ship of departure, or within 29 days, whichever is earlier. Some
applicants may be required to apply for a B-1 Business
Visa or a B-2 Tourist Visa in order to visit the
United States. Travelers from countries with a passport from a
Visa Waiver Country do not
need to obtain a transit visa. Additional information can be found in the C-1
Transit Visa application guide.
