The United States issues a tourist visa known as the B-2 visa for individuals who wish to visit the country for tourism or other non-business purposes. The B-2 visa is a non-immigrant visa, and it is intended for short-term visits.

Here are some key points about the U.S. tourist visa (B-2 visa):

• Purpose: The B-2 visa is primarily for tourism, visiting friends or relatives, medical treatment, or participating in social events or activities.
• Duration: The duration of stay on a B-2 visa is generally limited to a short period, usually six months. Extensions may be possible in some cases.
• Application Process:
  • Applicants typically need to submit a visa application form, pay the required fees, and attend a visa interview at the U.S. embassy or consulate in their home country.
  • Supporting documentation, such as proof of the purpose of the visit, ties to the home country, and financial ability to cover expenses, is usually required.
• Multiple Entry: The B-2 visa is often issued as a multiple-entry visa, allowing the traveler to enter the U.S. multiple times during the visa’s validity period.
