The UN High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) has called on Belgium and Hungary to conclude the Migration Asylum Pact during their respective EU presidencies in 2023. As both countries hold the rotating presidency, the UNHCR emphasizes the critical implementation of norms safeguarding the rights of asylum seekers.

The Migration and Asylum Pact, proposed by European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen in 2020, aims to establish shared responsibility among EU countries for migration management. The UNHCR sees the pact as crucial for a coordinated EU approach but stresses the importance of effective implementation with adequate safeguards.

Namibia will impose visa requirements on US tourists starting April 1, 2025. US visitors must apply online in advance or get a visa on arrival at major entry points. This change ends the previous visa-free stay of up to 90 days. The policy follows Namibia's decision to require visas for countries that do not offer reciprocal access.

The rule affects 31 nations, including the US, Canada, and the EU. Authorities say this move ensures fair diplomatic relations. Namibia also announced higher visa fees. The US Embassy in Namibia confirmed the new rule on March 25.

New Zealand now permits visitors to work remotely while in the country. Immigration Minister Erica Stanford said this move aims to attract travelers who can work and explore.

Stays beyond 92 days may have tax implications. The changes also apply to family visitors and guardians. In December 2024, New Zealand revised its Golden Visa Program to attract wealthy investors. The country aims to boost its economy and tourism.
