The Department of State is seeking public comments on a proposed information collection concerning travel to restricted countries or areas, specifically focusing on the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK). This collection aims to determine eligibility for special passport validations that allow travel to such areas. These validations are important due to the ongoing restrictions imposed by the State Department for safety reasons. Interested parties have until February 5, 2021, to submit their comments.
