This bill would ban Americans from using their passports to travel to the Turks and Caicos Islands, a British Caribbean territory, beginning 60 days after the law takes effect. The initial ban would last up to 90 days, though the Secretary of State could renew it for additional 90-day periods indefinitely. Americans could still travel there only if the Secretary of State grants them special validation for their passports on a case-by-case basis. The bill does not specify funding requirements or the reason for the travel restriction. The legislation was introduced in May 2024 and referred to the House Committee on Foreign Affairs.
