New Delhi, Sept. 20 -- As the Trump administration hiked the H-1B visa fees to a massive $100,000 annually, India said that it is studying the full implications of the measure and added that it would cause disruption for families and expressed hope that this aspect could be addressed by the US authorities.
US President Donald Trump on Friday (September 19) signed a proclamation-- 'Restriction on entry of certain non-immigrant workers', that will raise the fee for H-1B visas to a staggering $1,00,000 annually, in a move to crack down on immigration. The new rule is effective September 21, 2025.
The fee, which currently ranges from $2,000 to $5,000 per application, may now amount to $300,000 for the initial three-year H-1B visa period.
