Published June 9, 2026 · Updated June 9, 2026 · The Guardian

FIFA is struggling with visa arrangements for the 2026 World Cup due to the second Trump administration's aggressive border restrictions, unlike previous tournaments that had special arrangements.

Unlike previous World Cups in Brazil, Russia, and Qatar which had special visa arrangements, the 2026 tournament is facing significant challenges with the Trump administration's border policies. This has affected various individuals including referee Omar Artan and Iranian officials.

FIFA, which previously managed to bypass traditional immigration requirements, now finds its tournament squarely caught in these new border restrictions, potentially impacting access for fans and participants. noplasticplease.life
