I want to pay my visa fee at a local bank
Overview
In most cases, each visa applicant, including children, is required to pay a non-refundable, non-transferable Machine Readable Visa (MRV) application fee, whether a visa is issued or not. The visa application fee is determined by the type of visa for which you wish to apply. Generally, Liberian citizens need to pay a fee for a visa to the United States.
If you are a citizen of a country participating in the Visa Waiver Program, please first confirm whether you need to apply for a nonimmigrant visa or not. Certain individuals may not need a visa, for example, individuals eligible under the Visa Waiver Program, and should not pay an MRV fee.
In addition, some applicants for U.S. visas are not required to pay a fee. If you are applying for an A or G visa for official travel, or for a J visa to participate in certain U.S. Government-sponsored programs, please do not pay an MRV fee.
- Individuals already holding valid visas for their intended purpose of travel.
- Citizens of Canada or Bermuda (except in A, E, G, K or V visa categories)
If you do need to apply for a visa, please follow the instructions below for paying your visa application fee. For more information about fee exemptions, please visit this page.
Note: Applicants are limited to the number of times they can reschedule their appointments. Please plan accordingly so that you are not required to pay another visa application fee. Visa application fees are nonrefundable.
Fee Payment Options
Cash at Bank
Any nonimmigrant visa applicant can pay their visa application fee in cash at any designated GT bank branch. At the bank, you must write your fee payment amount and your telephone number in the U. S. visa fee collection slip available at the bank. After receiving your payment, the bank will give you a receipt.
After you have paid the visa application fee, please keep the GT bank fee receipt for your records.
All applicants are required to come with their GT bank fee receipt on their scheduled appointment day.
Online Payment
If you have an account with GTBank you may choose to pay your visa application fee online using GTBank's online bill pay service.
Note: It is important that you correctly type your payment code (also called a UID) into the online payment form when you pay your fee online. The payment code is created after you create your online profile at the beginning of the online payment process. This code verifies your payment and allows you to schedule your visa interview.
