As of 2026, the fee for a standard U.S. non-immigrant visa (such as the B1/B2 tourist or business visa) for citizens of Zimbabwe is $185 USD. This fee is consistent with the global standard set by the U.S. Department of State for non-petition-based visas. Other categories may have higher costs: petition-based visas for temporary workers (H, L, O, P, Q, and R categories) are $205 USD, and treaty trader/investor visas (E category) are $315 USD. It is important to note that these fees are non-refundable and are paid in U.S. currency or the equivalent local currency at the time of the interview appointment. In addition to the application fee, some applicants may be subject to a reciprocity fee (issuance fee) depending on the specific visa type and the current diplomatic agreements between the U.S. and Zimbabwe. Applicants must complete the DS-160 form online and schedule their interview through the official U.S. Embassy Harare portal, ensuring they have the correct fee amount ready for the payment phase of the application process.
