The Indian Embassy established an emergency contact line for citizens after President Trump announced the H-1B visa application fee. Officials provided the number +1-202-550-9931 for urgent situations only, rather than routine consular matters. Indian workers represent approximately 72 percent of annual H-1B visa recipients. The new policy has created widespread concern among these professionals. Senior administration representatives clarified that current visa holders remain unaffected by the financial requirement.

The charge applies exclusively to fresh petition submissions rather than renewals or existing permits. Indian nationals with valid visas may continue international travel without penalty or additional costs. The Ministry of External Affairs directed diplomatic missions across America to support travelers returning within 24 hours. Spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal confirmed that officials are examining the policy changes carefully. The government expressed concern about potential financial hardship and family difficulties resulting from the modifications to the visa program.
