Welcome, U.S. Nonimmigrant Visa Applicants

You are at the official nonimmigrant (temporary) visa information and appointment website for the U.S. Embassy in the Netherlands.

The U.S. Consulate General in Amsterdam is Going Cashless!

Beginning on May 1, 2024, cash will no longer be accepted for visa-related fees. All fees paid at the time of the visa interview must be paid with a credit card (Visa, Mastercard, Discover, American Express, or Diners Club) or U.S. debit card with the VISA symbol. The credit or debit card must be in the name of the person paying. U.S. dollars, euros, checks, or cards requiring a PIN will not be accepted.

To determine whether you might have to pay a fee at the time of your interview, review Other Fees here and information regarding reciprocity fees for your nationality here.

Please note: if you believe you will need to pay a fee at the time of your interview, keep the card you will be using with you when entering the consulates waiting room.
