Best Answer

With the passage of the Visa Waiver Program Improvement and Terrorist Travel Prevention Act in December 2015, previously-eligible nationals of Visa Waiver Program countries may no longer travel to the U.S. under the VWP if they have been to Iraq, Syria, Iran or Sudan since 2011. Assuming you are not already a U.S. citizen or permanent resident or a Canadian, you'll need to get a visa.
