Summary

Portugal updated its travel advice for the U.S., in light of stricter entry conditions and gender recognition changes under Trump.

The foreign ministry warned that having an ESTA or visa does not guarantee entry, as border agents make the final decision.

It advised non-binary travelers to use birth-assigned gender on forms, following Trump’s executive order recognizing only male and female sexes.

Other European countries, including Germany, France, and the UK, have issued similar guidance amid rising concerns over U.S. immigration practices and border incidents.
