countries offering visa lottery

For those who are looking to win lotteries to travel abroad, we have now come up with the list of countries offering visa lottery as the moment. Every year 50,000 (now 55,000) Permanent Resident cards are made available by the US government to be won by people from “underrepresented countries” which have been less represented in employment and family-based preference categories in the US. As a result, countries with few immigrants to the US are eligible but there are also some exceptions. Below is the list of countries offering visa lottery.

  • USA
  • Canada
  • UK
  • Australia
  • Netherlands
  • Switzerland
  • Sweden
  • Ireland
  • Iceland

  • UAE
  • San Marino

The list below shows the countries whose natives are eligible for DV-2019, grouped by geographic region. Dependent areas overseas are included within the region of the governing country.
