According to an internal memo reported by Reuters now Trump administration is considering new travel restrictions on citizens from 41 countries. It would impose different levels of restrictions based on each country’s compliance with U.S. security measures.
A U.S. official, speaking anonymously stated that the list is still under review and could change before final approval by Secretary of State Marco Rubio.
During his first term, Trump imposed a travel ban on seven predominantly Muslim countries, which was later overturned by former President Biden. Now, the administration is revisiting strict immigration policies with a focus on security concerns.

The memo divides the 41 affected countries into three categories:
| Category | Countries Affected |
| Full Visa Suspension (Complete travel ban) | Afghanistan, Cuba, Iran, Libya, North Korea, Somalia, Sudan, Syria, Venezuela, Yemen |
