I've got the paperwork in for a one-year business visa. If I read the fine print in some Web sites, if you enter with a visa for "one year or longer" you need to be tested for HIV (but can do it before you leave home). My company has provided thorough instructions about everything else but hasn't mentioned this even though they recommend one-year visas.

Is this because the law is selectively enforced? In other words, if I'm 51, female, married and coming in on a business visa, will they not ask? I have a couple more appointments for follow-up Hepatitis immunizations left so I have no problem with getting tested- just want to know if it's necessary.

Thanks.
