| Tourist, Business, Transit, Crew Member, Student, Exchange Visitor, and Journalist visas | $140 | $160 | |||

| Fiancé(e) visas (K) | $350 | $240 | |||
| Border Crossing Cards (age 15 and older) | $140 | $160 | |||
| Border Crossing Cards (under age 15) | $14 | $15 | |||
| Type of Visa | Previous Fee | New Fee | |||
| Immediate Relative and Family Preference Applications | $330 | $230 | |||

| Other Immigrant Visa Applications | $305 | $220 | |||
| Diversity Visa Program Fee | $440 | $330 | |||
| Determining Returning Resident Status | $380 | $275 | |||
It is important to note that the action of the Sierra Leone Embassy in Washington D.C was necessitated by the United States action to increase the cost of visa, because Embassies work on a reciprocal basis.
