Image credit: Unsplash\/Oxana Melis<\/a> <\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\nThe Visa Waiver Program (VWP) was introduced to make it extremely easy for passport holders of Visa waiver program countries to enter New York City without applying for a Visa. Presently, there are about 42 countries that are members of the Visa Waiver Program. People who want to visit New York City for below 90 days, for business purposes, transit purposes, tourism purposes, or to receive medical treatment can consider this Visa process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sadly, this Visa waiver program is not yet available for Indian citizens; however, if you\u2019re a citizen of Austria, Australia, Chile, Japan, Israel, Switzerland, Ireland, and a few other Schengen countries, you can apply for the waiver program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
