The Immigration Authority will "regard it as a negative factor" that trans women compete against other women in visa applications for athletes who want to travel to the USA to compete.
"It's about safety, fairness, respect, and the truth that only female athletes get a visa to come to the USA to participate in women's sports", says Matthew Tragesser, spokesperson for the US Immigration Authority, according to Reuters.
US President Donald Trump has previously restricted the opportunities for trans people to participate in sports in the country.
The Olympic Games 2028 will be held in Los Angeles, USA.
