FIFA and US Government Launch Expedited Visa Process for 2026 World Cup Fans
Share this article
US President Donald Trump and FIFA President Gianni Infantino have unveiled the “FIFA Pass”, a system designed to fast-track visa appointments for fans attending the 2026 World Cup.
The Pass prioritises ticket holders for tourist visas, reducing wait times—though entry into the US is not guaranteed, as standard verification still applies.
Fans are encouraged to begin the visa process early.
The 2026 World Cup will be hosted by the US, Mexico, and Canada, with the US staging 78 matches across 11 cities.
Over 1 million tickets have been sold to fans from 212 countries.
