Highlights
  • The U.S. will reduce Africa visa processing from about 50 posts to 20 hubs, centralizing services across the continent.
  • The 20 hubs will handle full visa processing, including major posts such as Abidjan, Accra, Addis Ababa, and Johannesburg.
  • A non-hub country citizen would need to travel to one of the 20 approved sites to obtain a visa, potentially increasing travel for Africans seeking U.S. visas.
