To allow for more visa application interviews, the US Embassy in Dhaka has implemented a new scheduling system.

According to a press release from the Bangladeshi foreign ministry, the modifications started on December 15 and the full-scale schedule change will begin on January 2, 2025.

The US Embassy in Dhaka has informed the following important changes under the new scheduling mechanism:

1.Applicant’s non-immigrant visa interview will be cancelled if he/she DOES NOT have a valid DS-160 confirmation (barcode) number on the day of his/her interview that the Embassy is able to retrieve in its system and which matches their manifest.

2.In that case, applicants will need to re-schedule their interview and may have to wait a couple of months to get a new date.

3.The valid DS-160 confirmation (barcode) number must be reflected in applicant’s online profile;

4.Any changes in the online profile/DS-160 within a week (7 calendar days) before the visa interview will result in the cancellation of the interview appointment.
