How long can I stay in the US on a tourist?

As we have mentioned throughout the article, visitors cannot legally stay in the USA beyond what is allowed by their tourist visa. By law, it is for a maximum period of 6 months. Generally, a passport stamp without a written date means that the holder has been granted a stay of 6 months in the country.
