Getting a U.S. visitor visa is about to get a lot more expensive for some folks. Bangladeshi citizens applying for new B1 or B2 visas will need to post a bond that could hit fifteen thousand dollars.
This big fee only targets fresh applications, not people who already have a valid visa. Officials are telling applicants not to pay this money upfront to anyone.
Paying the bond early won't help you get the visa, and you won't get your cash back. Third-party sites asking for payment are probably running scams.
The full bond amount gets returned to the traveler if they follow all visa rules during their U.S. trip. The policy is designed to ensure visitors depart on time.
