V. Assets required for a US visa

You can apply for a B-2 US tourist visa when traveling, entertaining, visiting relatives and friends, seeking medical treatment, attending conferences, attending exhibitions and handling personal affairs in the United States. B-2 American tourist visas can be divided into three months, one year, three years, five years, ten years and permanent, and the number of entry times can also be divided into one-time and multiple-entry visas.

American embassies and consulates in different countries or regions, or different consuls in the same consulate, have great discretion over the validity period or the number of entry visas. It is easier for Hong Kong residents to apply for a B-2 visa valid for multiple entry for one to five years, while it is easier for China mainland residents to apply for a B-2 visa valid for one or more entry for three months to one year.
