Where to apply: United States has no mission in Swaziland

Guides tell you a visa is required but never warn that there is nowhere to file it — the mission simply does not exist in your country. We picked the nearest countries that do accept applications and measured the distance.

1
Botswana 830 km
Applications accepted in: Gaborone
2
South Africa 946 km
Applications accepted in: Johannesburg, Durban, Cape Town
3
Mozambique 968 km
Applications accepted in: Maputo

Distances are measured between country centroids — a rough guide, not a route. Before you travel, confirm with the chosen consulate that it accepts applicants resident elsewhere: many operate a consular district, and out-of-district applications are not always accepted, often with a longer queue.
