Visa applicants must ensure matching DS-160 barcodes from May 1

Starting May 1, 2025, all visa applicants are required to present a DS-160 visa application form with a confirmation/barcode number beginning with "AA" that matches the one used for scheduling their appointment online. If there is a discrepancy between the barcode number on the DS-160 form and the one used for booking, applicants will not be permitted to interview.

Applicants with mismatched barcode numbers must schedule a new appointment to continue their visa application process. This can be done by accessing their application at https://www.ustraveldocs.com/lt/en/.

It is advised to verify before the interview that the barcode number on the DS-160 form aligns with the one used for appointment scheduling. Matching barcode numbers are essential to avoid delays and ensure a smooth interview process.
