WASHINGTON — The Trump administration is preparing to revoke the business and tourism visas of potentially up to 200,000 foreign nationals who entered the United States on temporary visas and later sought asylum, according to reporting based on State Department documents and U.S. officials.

The planned action targets holders of B-1 and B-2 visas, which are generally issued for business travel and tourism. The State Department said it is coordinating with the Department of Homeland Security to identify people who entered as short-term visitors before filing asylum claims to remain in the country.

The administration has not publicly confirmed that exactly 200,000 visas will be revoked, and the State Department has not specified the final number.

If the plan reaches the reported scale, it would represent an unprecedented expansion of visa enforcement and could affect a large number of people with pending immigration cases.

The move comes as the administration continues its broader immigration crackdown, increasing scrutiny of visa holders and asylum applicants across the United States.

The proposed campaign is likely to generate further legal and political debate over asylum rights, visa enforcement and the government's authority to revoke temporary travel documents.
