Visitor visa refusal rate for Belize nationals

The State Department publishes refusal rates by nationality, counting applicants at every post, not by post. A refusal is what applicants usually call a visa rejection. This is the rate for nationals of Belize wherever they applied, not a rate for Belmopan.
