On June 17, 2023, the fees for U.S. visitor visas and other non-petition-based non-immigrant visas (NIVs) will rise from $160 to $185. Petition-based visa categories, including H, L, O, P, Q, and R types, will see an increase in application fees from $190 to $205. Additionally, E visa application fees will be raised from $205 to $315.
The adjustment reflects the outcome of an annual study assessing the cost of providing these services. Acknowledging the significant contribution of international travel to the U.S. economy is a key factor in this decision.
