Official abstract

This rule proposes adjustments in current fees for consular services. The Department of State is adjusting the fees in light of an independent cost of service study's ("CoSS") findings that the U.S. Government is not fully covering its costs for providing these services under the current fee structure. The primary objective of the adjustments to the Schedule of Fees is to ensure that fees for consular services reflect costs to the United States of providing the services.
