Prince Harry’s Heavily Redacted U.S. Immigration Records Released Following Court Order

The documents, made public after a lawsuit by the Heritage Foundation, leave key questions about the Duke of Sussex’s visa application unanswered.

A U.S. District Court judge ordered the release of Prince Harry's immigration records, which were made public on March 18, 2025, in heavily redacted form.
The Heritage Foundation filed a lawsuit under the Freedom of Information Act, questioning whether Harry lied about past drug use on his visa application or received special treatment.
The released documents do not include Prince Harry's visa application itself, leaving unresolved whether his admissions of drug use in his memoir impacted his visa process.
Admitting to past drug use does not automatically disqualify a U.S. visa applicant, but lying on the application can lead to visa termination or deportation.
Prince Harry has not publicly commented on the matter, and President Trump has stated he will not pursue deportation of the Duke of Sussex.
