U.S. Imposes Visa Restrictions over Gang Violence in Haiti
The U.S. targets Haitian officials accused of aiding gangs amid surging violence that controls 90% of the capital, aiming to curb political instability and criminal influence.
- The Department of Homeland Security announced Wednesday it is ending Haiti's Temporary Protected Status for about 353,000 beneficiaries, with departures set by February 3, 2026.
- Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem said she concluded Haiti no longer meets TPS criteria and DHS made this decision after a USCIS review and interagency consultations.
- More than 1.4 million Haitians are internally displaced, according to the International Organization for Migration, while UNICEF reported over 6 million people need humanitarian assistance amid escalating violence.
- Beneficiaries can use the CBP One mobile app to schedule voluntary departure and will receive a complimentary commercial flight plus a $1,000 exit stipend, DHS warned those without lawful status to prepare to depart.
- The decision follows previous court battles after earlier attempts were blocked, as former President Joe Biden extended Haiti TPS in 2024 and the current move fits a broader agenda to roll back multiple TPS programs.
