 FIFA may shift 2026 World Cup matches from US to Canada over visa crisis


FIFA is considering moving some 2026 World Cup matches out of the United States to Canada over the country’s strict immigration policies.

According to reports, the new U.S. visa restrictions have made entry difficult for fans, journalists, and even entire delegations.

With over 40 countries currently on the U.S. travel ban list, including Iran supporters of qualified teams may be locked out, leaving stadiums nearly empty.

The development has sparked criticism from fans and human rights groups, questioning FIFA’s commitment to inclusion and non-discrimination.

While the U.S. still provides financial muscle for the tournament, FIFA faces pressure to protect its values of diversity and accessibility.

A decision on whether to shift some matches to Canada is expected soon.
