What is the consular fee for the E-1?

Applying for the E-1 involves paying a non-immigrant visa consular fee, which is typically charged when scheduling the interview. Because official amounts change over time, quoting a specific figure here would be misleading: the correct number is always the one published by the official source for your jurisdiction.

Beyond the basic consular fee, it is important to know that a reciprocity fee or other charges may apply, varying according to the applicant’s country of origin. This means the total cost is not always the same for everyone.

To find out exactly how much you owe and how to pay, visit the official website of the U.S. embassy or consulate responsible for your region and review the guidance from the Department of State. Be cautious of figures shared by unofficial sources, as they may be out of date.
