U.S. VISA FEES INCREASE
The United States government, under the administration of Donald Trump, recently approved a law called the One Big Beautiful Bill, which introduces a new mandatory fee of $250 (approximately 885 soles) for “visa integrity.” This is how it was reported in a note by Infobae and other regional media outlets. This charge applies to all temporary visa applications, including tourism (B1/B2), study (F, M), business, and exchange visitor visas.
This new amount is in addition to the regular visa fee, which is currently $185 (around 655 soles), bringing the total to $435 (approximately 1,541 soles) for a tourist visa, according to estimates made by Infobae in its edition for Peruvian readers. The fee must be paid at the time the visa is issued.
T News has not yet found official confirmation of this measure, although several regional media sources have mentioned it. One of them claims the increase would take effect on October 1st, coinciding with the start of the fiscal year in the U.S.
The same report mentions a possible refund for travelers who leave the United States a few days before their approved stay period ends. T News is awaiting an official version of the measure, including confirmation of the policy, amount, scope, start date, and conditions for a possible refund.
None of the data published in this note should be considered final. As of 2:30 p.m. today, this information was not visible on the X account of the United States Embassy in Peru.
