DV Lottery for Montserrat: Eligibility, Odds and What to Prepare

Natives of Montserrat could enter DV-2026

Montserrat was not listed among the DV-2026 excluded birthplaces, so people born there could enter that cycle. This is a historical reference: the list is republished for every cycle, and no DV-2027 list has been published as of 21 October 2026. Your country of eligibility normally follows your place of birth, not your nationality or where you live.

Country of birth normally determines chargeability. Citizenship or current residence alone does not replace it. Check spouse, parent and territory exceptions in the actual cycle’s instructions.

No PP 10998 restriction named for Montserrat

Montserrat is not named in the PP 10998 nationality lists in our source snapshot. This is not a general visa or travel clearance; other rules can apply, and restrictions change.

Nationality, passport, location and visa validity at the effective date can matter. Limited exceptions require individual review. Do not treat a country selector as a final eligibility ruling.

How many people from Montserrat enter and are selected

The State Department did not publish separate entry or selectee figures for Montserrat in the years we compiled; its entrants may be counted under another country of chargeability.

After selection: documents from Montserrat

A person born in Montserrat may need police or civil records from more than one country because of past residence, marriage, birth or arrest history. The format of each record depends on the country that issued it, not only on your nationality: use the official document finder for every country involved.
