🇭🇹 Does a Haitian need a visa for the United States 🇺🇸?
Yes. Haitian passport holders need a visa for the United States, applied for at an embassy or consulate of the United States before travelling.
Checked against Wikipedia's list of visa requirements for Haitian citizens on 2026-10-04. Entry rules change: confirm with the embassy of the United States or its official government website before you travel.
What this means for your trip
You apply at an embassy, consulate or authorised visa centre of the destination, usually with an application form, passport photos, bank statements, travel itinerary and accommodation bookings.
Processing takes days to weeks, and some embassies require an interview; start the application well before your trip.
Your passport should normally be valid for at least six months beyond your planned departure date and have blank pages for stamps; many countries apply this rule.
Where to apply in Haiti
If you live in Haiti, visas for the United States are issued by its missions there. Many of them use an outsourced visa application centre: the mission's website says where to apply and which office covers your region.

Plugs and voltage
Your plugs fit: every plug type used in Haiti (A, B) works with sockets in the United States. Mains voltage differs (the United States: 120 V; Haiti: 110 V): most phone and laptop chargers accept 100–240 V, but single-voltage devices such as some hair dryers need a converter.
