In the Nutshell
IRAP has written an explainer about the Trump Administration’s December 16, 2025 proclamation that continued and expanded restrictions on immigrant and nonimmigrant entry from certain countries (the “Travel Ban”) that were initially put into place in June 2025. This explainer provides legal practitioners and advocates with an overview of the content of the expanded travel ban and information about its impact on immigrants and immigration processes. The explainer contains charts, which we have also embedded below, comparing the countries / individuals impacted and the exceptions to the June 2025 Ban and December 2025 Expanded Ban.
