A DUI can have immigration consequences in some situations, particularly if there are aggravating factors or multiple convictions. A standard first-time DUI does not automatically result in deportation.
Factors such as prior criminal history, injuries, drug-related allegations, or additional charges can increase immigration risk. DUI arrests may also affect visa applications, renewals, or admissibility.
Because immigration law is highly fact-specific, the impact of a DUI can vary depending on an individual’s circumstances.
