Starting in 2026, the United States will introduce a new $250 Visa Integrity Fee on most non-immigrant visas, significantly raising costs for applicants from Bangladesh and other countries. This fee applies to tourist, student, and work visas, increasing total expenses to nearly $472 for a B-1/B-2 visa. Refunds are possible under strict conditions, such as timely departure or legal status changes. The fee aims to encourage lawful behavior and is part of broader immigration reforms, including a new tax on remittances.

New Fee on U.S. Visas: Costs for Bangladeshis to Increase by Two and a Half Times

On July 4th, U.S. President Donald Trump signed the ‘Big Beautiful Bill.’ According to this bill, starting from 2023, a new “Visa Integrity Fee” of $250 will be implemented on most non-immigrant visa categories. As a result, applicants wishing to travel to the United States for tourism, study, or work will face a significant increase in visa costs. This new rule will also raise the visa expenses for Bangladeshis since the fee applies to almost all non-immigrant visa categories.
