US prepared for visa sanctions on China over migrants issue: Report
Washington is weighing higher visa bonds and more entry denials after China accepted about 3,000 deportees in early 2025, an official said.
- The U.S. government threatened visa sanctions on China on May 5, citing Beijing's failure to repatriate undocumented citizens, a senior administration official told Reuters.
- After accepting about 3,000 deportees via charter flights in early 2025, China scaled back cooperation over the past six months, resisting U.S. requests to repatriate tens of thousands of citizens.
- Current U.S. estimates indicate more than 100,000 undocumented Chinese nationals reside in the country, with over 30,000 facing final removal orders and more than 1,500 currently detained awaiting deportation.
- If China does not increase cooperation, the U.S. will consider increased cash bonds for visa applicants, deny additional visas, and block more entries at the border.
- President Donald Trump plans to visit Beijing on May 14-15 and raise the deportation issue during meetings with President Xi Jinping, seeking trade concessions ahead of November's midterm elections.
