Extra $250 US visa integrity fee will burden genuine travellers and impact tourism numbers: Guldeep Singh  

The new $250 US ‘visa integrity fee’ has drawn criticism from the trade. Guldeep Singh Sahni, MD, Weldon Tours & Travels, said it burdens genuine travellers. “A family of four must pay an extra $1000, refundable only after 10 years and repay again if visas are renewed. It will impact the tourism numbers.”
