Visitors to the US - Visas and fingerprinting - Part 2
Earlier this year there was a flurry of discussion on this subject. As I recall, the US had said that British travellers holding a "machine-readable" passport could still travel to the US without a visa for the 10-year lifetime of their document and would be photographed and fingerprinted on arrival. A very recent BBC site item repeats the bit about fingerprinting but says nothing about visa requirements. So, what is the current position regarding the need for visas?
