Former US President Donald Trump imposed new travel restrictions, banning Tanzanian nationals from entering the United States. The ban cites deficiencies in Tanzania's screening, vetting, and information sharing regarding its citizens, along with high visa overstay rates.

• Tanzanian nationals on B-1/B-2 visas have an overstay rate of 8.30 percent, while those on F, M, and J visas have a rate of 13.97 percent.
• The proclamation noted the restrictions are necessary to prevent the entry of foreign nationals for whom the United States lacks sufficient information to assess risks.
• Tanzania joins a list of other nations facing partial entry restrictions; the move follows widespread reports of human rights violations after Tanzania's October elections.
