U.S. Embassy issues new advisories [Archives:2002/28/Local News]

The U.S. Embassy in Sanaa has recently issued two advisory notices regarding current security screening procedures at the U.S. airports and border crossings. The advisories are both for Yemeni nationals and to American citizens in Yemen who may be subject to enhanced security screening of their luggage and other personal belongings.
Yet, the enhanced inspection procedures do not preclude travel by Yemeni nationals to or from the United States, and they do not affect the validity of their visas.
A press release by the U.S. Embassy adds that American citizens traveling to or from Yemen may be subject to additional inquiries associated with their visit to Yemen by U.S. authorities at U.S. ports of entry or by airline authorities prior to boarding.
The advisories will remain in effect until further notice.
