Is a Visa required for a Belizean citizen to travel from Belize to the U.S. for a pleasure trip of less than 30 days?
Or is a passport sufficient?

I do not think a Belizean is allowed to enter the US without a visa.

Correct a Belizean needs a visa for any entry to the US. Check with the US embassy in Belmopan.

Visa is required applicant may need to present land papers employment and in extreme cases bank statement. One time they would ask for an invitation letter from host. Not anymore.

A visa is needed, and has very strict requirements and significant cost. The embassy also rejects a lot of applicants if they cannot show significant ties to Belize and means to support themselves.

Lots of Belizeans are shy of applying as the upfront fees are high for your average Belize citizen and if no visa granted they lose that fee. Stringent proof requirements that you will return to Belize and not overstay in the US are often too difficult to comply with.
It seems that places that actually have a history of following the rules end up getting even stricter rules. Belize has the lowest number of citizens caught trying to enter the US illegally among the Central American countries.
