A B1/B2 visa is a non-immigrant multiple-entry visa to the US that combines two visitor visa categories: category B-1 visas for business purposes and category B-2 for tourism and medical purposes. The B1/B2 visa allows the holder to temporarily stay in the US, after which it can be renewed.
A B1/B2 visa can be valid for up to ten years after insurance. The B visa is a multiple-entry visa, and the ten-year validity allows foreign nationals to utilize their visa as much as needed before it expires.
