Previously-issued US visas remain intact as long as the visa holder does not concurrently hold a valid passport from Iraq, Iran, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria, or Yemen. In a statement, the US embassy clarified that for such Israelis; their visa was not cancelled and still remains valid.

The statement also clarified that final authorization to enter the US “is always determined at the port of entry.” Trump issue the temporary ban last Friday that also indefinitely blocked all Syrians seeking refuge in the US, closing America's gates to millions and forcing US law enforcement to immediately detain or turn away hundreds of visa holders and asylum seekers at its borders.
