As of Today: America's Travel Ban on 19 Countries Is Now Active

9. Libya: Instability & Questionable Document Control

Why It's Banned: The U.S. cites the absence of a competent central authority for issuing reliable travel documents and the historical terrorist presence within its territory. This full ban reflects ongoing security concerns in a nation struggling with protracted internal conflict. It creates immense hurdles for Libyans seeking stability, education, or family connections abroad, further isolating a populace already facing significant challenges.
