Four members of Iran’s World Cup delegation successfully appeal against US visa rejections, but 11 other staff members remain banned from travelling to the United States, according to reports from BBC Sport and The Mirror. The appeal decisions relate to visa applications for members of the delegation travelling for the tournament. In total, the Iranian party is described as 15-strong. Under the reported outcomes, four individuals have their visa applications accepted following the appeals process, allowing them to travel, while 11 others continue to face restrictions preventing entry into the US. The coverage indicates that the overall situation does not affect the number of sanctioned staff beyond the split between the successful appellants and those still denied. The reports present the matter as an outcome of the US visa appeals process for specific delegation members, with the final travel eligibility determined on an individual basis. No additional details about the reasons for the initial denials or the specific identities of the affected staff are provided in the shared accounts.
