    Type:Rule
    Citation:89 FR 105391
    Reading Time:about 5 minutes

    The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has issued a final rule updating how the public is notified about countries participating in the Visa Waiver Program (VWP). Instead of listing participating countries in the Code of Federal Regulations, the DHS will now provide this information on their website. This change aims to make updates more efficient and remove the need for administrative updates in the Federal Register. The rule does not change which countries are in the VWP or impact public rights since the information remains accessible online.

    Simple Explanation

    The DHS is changing how they tell people which countries can visit the U.S. without a visa. Instead of putting the list in a big rule book, they will keep it on a website so they can update it faster.
