Antigua and Barbuda and Dominica recorded zero B1/B2 visa issuances during the first two months of 2026, according to data showing significant differences across selected Caribbean and neighbouring South American countries.

Trinidad and Tobago recorded the highest number, with 4,431 visas issued, followed by Guyana with 2,777 and Barbados with 865.

Numbers were substantially lower across the Eastern Caribbean. St Kitts and Nevis recorded 238 issuances, followed by St Lucia with 192, Grenada with 164 and St Vincent and the Grenadines with 144.

B1/B2 visas generally permit temporary travel to the United States for business, tourism or a combination of both.

The figures were:

Trinidad and Tobago — 4,431

Guyana — 2,777

Barbados — 865

St Kitts and Nevis — 238

St Lucia — 192

Grenada — 164

St Vincent and the Grenadines — 144

Antigua and Barbuda — 0

Dominica — 0

However, the zero figures for Antigua and Barbuda and Dominica should not necessarily be interpreted as meaning that all applicants from those countries were refused visas.

Visa issuance statistics can depend on how applications are classified and where they are processed. Further clarification would therefore be needed to determine precisely what the zero figures represent.
