Prince Harry Holds Rare A-1 US Diplomatic Visa

Prince Harry's US visa status has been the center of intense scrutiny and legal battles following his move to the United States with Meghan Markle in 2020. The Heritage Foundation, a conservative think tank, has sought to uncover whether Harry was truthful about his drug use on his visa application, given his admissions in his memoir 'Spare,' which could have disqualified him from obtaining a visa. Despite a court ruling to keep the visa details confidential, new documents uncovered by the Trump administration suggest that Harry holds a rare A-1 'Head of State' visa, a special diplomatic status granted to foreign royals that allows indefinite US residence and multiple entries with less stringent security checks. This visa is issued by the Department of State, not the Department of Homeland Security, and permits a 'duration of status' for the visa holder's lifetime given his royal status. The large volume of documents and ongoing legal efforts indicate that Harry's immigration status is being closely monitored, and there is speculation that if dishonesty about his drug use is proven, President Donald Trump could consider deportation. However, much of the information remains heavily redacted, and the matter continues to involve complex legal and political considerations.
