NON-IMMIGRANT VISAS
Machine Readable Visa Application Fee Payment Instructions
Applicants for non-immigrant visas must pay a non-refundable
application fee of the equivalent of U.S. $ 100 in euros when they apply
for their visas. This fee must be paid at any branch of
Banco Santander
Central Hispano (BSCH), bank account: 0049-1803-54-2210316035.
Only applicants for diplomatic visas (A, G, C-3,
and NATO), bearers of diplomatic passports, and exchange visitors sponsored by
the Public Affairs Division of the U.S. Department of State are exempt from
paying this application fee.
Please request payment into the following account number:
Banco Santander Central Hispano (BSCH)
0049-1803-54-2210316035
Nationals of some countries will have to pay an additional visa
issuance fee based on the principle of reciprocity based on fees their
governments charge Americans applying for similar visas. There is no reciprocal
issuance fee for Spanish or Andorran citizens.
Applicants who apply in person for their
visas must present the original receipt of payment with their application. Those who apply by mail or messenger service must include the receipt with their
application. Any application submitted without a bank receipt will be returned
without consideration. The receipt is valid for one year, even if there is a
fee change during that period.
Please note: we cannot accept bank transfers, personal/bank checks or cash.
It is non-refundable even if your visa application is denied.
NOTE: Spanish and Andorran citizens, and citizens of other Visa
Waiver Program (VWP) countries do not need visas if they plan to travel for
business or tourism to the U.S. for less than 90 days and have a round trip
ticket. Passengers traveling to the US on a private boat or plane must have a
visa. For more information on VWP, please contact our information service or
consult the Department of State’s website.
