The Trump administration has proposed setting an annual fee of $100,000 for H-1B work visas, commonly used by tech firms—a move with major implications for companies and foreign-skilled workers.

The U.S. government under President Trump announced that companies will have to pay $100,000 per year for each H-1B work visa.

This policy mainly affects the tech sector, which relies heavily on foreign experts and specialized workers.

The change could disrupt ongoing visa applications or testing phases and force some workers to reconsider travel or relocation plans.

Major tech firms like Microsoft, JPMorgan, and Amazon have advised H-1B holders who are outside the U.S. to return before the change takes effect.

Critics argue the fee could increase costs for companies, reduce competitiveness, and put strain on foreign talent pipelines.
