Non-Immigrant

A non-immigrant is a person who enters a country temporarily for specific purposes, such as work, study, tourism, or business. Unlike immigrants, non-immigrants do not intend to settle permanently. They typically hold a visa that outlines the duration and conditions of their stay, which could range from a few months to several years, depending on the visa type. Common non-immigrant categories include student visas, tourist visas, and work visas. After their authorized stay ends, non-immigrants are expected to return to their home country.
