Non-U.S. Passport Guidelines
In general, when an applicant applies for a visa, they must have in their possession a current passport that is valid for at least 6 months after they are to return from the U.S. Additionally, there should be enough blank pages in the passport to affix a visa if the visa is granted. Passports should be in good condition and should not be damaged, mutilated, defaced or have missing or ripped pages.
