In response to the recent global situation, new movements are emerging in overseas travel.
The number of Japanese women being denied entry to Hawaii has increased significantly. This is believed to be due to suspicions that the travel was not for tourism but for work, particularly illegal activities.
U.S. immigration officials are becoming more vigilant after a significant increase in the number of women traveling abroad for work, especially illegal activities. This led to stricter immigration controls not only in Hawaii but also in cities such as Los Angeles, Las Vegas, and New York.
Once you are denied entry to the United States, you may be barred from entering the United States for up to 10 years.
It’s hard to understand in this video, so I’ll add a little more information, but this woman was refused entry due to the following behavior.
・She was trying to obtain an ESTA and enter the country.
When she entered the country, she publicly stated that she was an “office worker”, but she is actually an influencer (10,000 followers)
・She is planning to meet her friend at local, but she has not booked a hotel herself.
・Even though she was supposed to be traveling, she brought a lot of clothes (doesn’t she buy clothes locally? Want to sell clothes? gravure?).
・She wants to take pictures (can a trip whose purpose is to take a lot of pictures be considered a trip? photographer or Instagramer?)
As a result, the purpose of her trip could be interpreted as work.
Here’s what you can learn from this video.
– Properly declare at immigration inspection
– Immigration inspections will continue to become stricter in countries such as the United States
