The Strengthening Entry Visa Enforcement and Restrictions Act, or SEVER Act, aims to prevent the entry of certain individuals into the United States. Its primary objective is to deny admission to any individual who is subject to sanctions pursuant to Executive Order 13876 , which specifically concerns imposing sanctions with respect to Iran. The bill achieves this by amending Section 407(a)(1) of the Foreign Relations Authorization Act, Fiscal Years 1990 and 1991 . This amendment adds individuals sanctioned under Executive Order 13876, as it was in effect on September 16, 2025, to the list of those who must be denied admission to the United States. This legislative action reinforces existing restrictions by explicitly linking visa denial to specific Iran-related sanctions.
