Prince Harry may hold rare 'golden ticket' visa letting him stay in the US for life as new records are unearthed
Share this @internewscast.com

Prince Harry might possess a unique diplomatic visa that permits him to reside in the US indefinitely, as revealed by newly discovered records from the Trump administration.

The Department of Homeland Security released immigration documents, heavily redacted, linked to the Duke of Sussex’s lawsuit from March regarding his immigration status.

Although these documents didn’t disclose much new information — following the duke’s admissions of past drug use in his memoir “Spare” — it was deemed a privacy violation to make them public.

Now, freshly discovered documents this week from the Trump administration indicate that the Invictus Games founder could have an exclusive “golden ticket” visa, specifically an A-1 Head of State document, reserved for heads of state and foreign royals.

This particular visa grants foreign nationals the freedom to travel at will and includes reduced security checks for its holders, according to an immigration expert interviewed by the Daily Mail.

“The Department of State is responsible for vetting and issuing the A-1 visa with minimal input from the Department of Homeland Security,” immigration lawyer Melissa Chavin explained to the outlet.

“I would expect that Prince Harry had an A-1 visa every year of his life. Take his age and divide by five to figure out how many applications he has filed (or were filed on his behalf when he was underage) – so about eight applications.”

“Each visa will have a duration of five years, good for multiple entries to the United States,” Chavin continued. “Each entry will be permitted for an indefinite period of time called ‘duration of status,’ meaning for the time that he remains close to becoming the King of England. For him, that is all of his life.”

Another immigration expert told the outlet that the visa is akin to a “golden ticket” that allows Harry to “sit here forever.”

The Post has reached out to Harry’s reps for comment.

The father of two, who quit royal life with his wife, Meghan Markle, in 2020 and hightailed it across the pond, previously said he “enjoys” life stateside.

What’s more, the duke — who is estranged from his family — revealed plans to remain in the US permanently after sensationally renouncing his British residency in April.

In September 2023, the conservative Heritage Foundation sued the DHS for access to Harry’s visa documents to determine whether he made false statements about prior drug use.

Harry admitted in his protocol-shattering book that he experimented with cocaine, cannabis and psychedelic mushrooms — behavior he would have been required to disclose on application forms filed before he relocated to the US in 2020.

He revealed that he tried cocaine when he was 17 years old “to feel different.”

“Of course, I had been taking cocaine at that time,” he wrote in the book. “At someone’s house, during a hunting weekend, I was offered a line, and since then I had consumed some more.”

The Washington-based think tank insisted that King Charles’s youngest son didn’t mention his history with drugs on his application forms filed before he quit royal life and left the UK.

The foundation argued that the duke must have either provided false information on his forms or received preferential treatment.

As a result, the case was reopened in February but put to rest the following month after President Trump’s return to the White House.

As previously revealed by The Post, the visa is typically submitted by a sponsor, in this case, possibly one of Harry’s foundations, which may have argued for his admittance based on a “fundraising” ability or another “exceptional talent.”

If the duke copped to taking drugs, that information would have appeared on a file known as a DS-160 — and sent straight to the Department of Homeland Security, Heritage Foundation lawyer Samuel Dewey previously told The Post.

But if he didn’t put down any of his youthful misadventures, that visa paperwork would’ve never ended up in its entirety “in the DHS files” and would’ve stayed with the State Department.

While Harry’s exact visa type remains shrouded in mystery, sources close to the former working royal previously said that he had answered truthfully on his visa application.

Despite the controversy surrounding the duke’s visa status, Trump has ruled out any plans to deport him.

“I’ll leave him alone,” he exclusively told The Post in February.
