How Long Will it Take to Receive My Visa?

Travelers to the United States are strongly encouraged to schedule visa interviews well in advance of travel plans. The Consular Section is in the midst of peak demand during the summer months. Also, once your visa is approved, it will take a least seven business days to arrive from the post office.

The State Department website displays visa appointment wait times for all non-immigrant visa processing posts.
