Why did your last passport expire? Did it expire prior to 9-11/01? If so restrictions have changed.

You don't need a Visa, FRiend, if you are in transit in international airports. You don't clear customs into the USA until you try to leave the international terminal.
Having said that, as a non-US citizen, you have NO RIGHT at all to ever set foot on our soil. Get over it.

Hey gat, your anger and frustration are quite valid.
The truth is that terrorists and illegal immigrants are to blame, more than the USA embassy. Many people do not end up taking their connecting flight that would take them out of the USA... Chavez is putting all kinds of money into insurgency in Bolivia, so it is now on a kind of watch list for problem people. So all these things that are no fault of your own are causing problems.
Anyway you can see why a transit visa might require nearly as much care as a tourist visa.
I wish this was not the situation, wish things were different.

So I want to complaint ....You signed on FR to complain to AA?? Huh?
I got a feeling you're going to have a short stay........
To: gat_ubela
Welcome to FR.
Your point about the Embassy Web site is valid.
However, who attempted to assist you at American Airlines? Was it a Bolivian or an American?
Typically, I have found in my travels that people other than Americans working for airlines in foreign countries are much less helpful to prospective transitors than are American citizens working in foreign countries.
Don't blame the Airline.

Send a better detailed version of this email to the ambassador. (There will be contact information on the website.) Send the email in Spanish. Tell him that the lack of customer service by (give the lady's name) is interfering with your legitimate right (under international law) to travel for business, etc. Ask that he provide the name of consular OFFICER you can work with to resolve the problem in a timely fashion.
If this doesn't work, complain using the Bolivian Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
As a last resort, reschedule your air travel so that you don't need a US transit visa.
