The Trump travel ban denotes a series of executive actions taken by Donald Trump as President of the United States, beginning with Protecting the Nation from Foreign Terrorist Entry into the United States (January 27, 2017).[1][2]
It was labeled as a "Muslim ban" by Donald Trump, his aides,[3][4] as well as his critics,[5][6] and became widely known as such since the ban mostly impacted countries with predominantly Muslim populations.[7] One of the few countries without a predominantly Muslim population that was targeted by the travel ban was North Korea. In addition to the travel ban, North Korea was the only country targeted with a reverse travel ban, prohibiting American citizens from traveling to North Korea.
On January 20, 2021, newly inaugurated president Joe Biden issued a proclamation revoking the Trump travel bans, with the exception of the reverse travel ban prohibiting American citizens from traveling to North Korea.
