Companies in the United States that rely on foreign talent to fill high-skill positions could face new hurdles due to recent changes in the US H-1B visa program. The\u00a0changes<\/a>, announced by the Trump Administration and the US Department of Labor in September 2025, are expected to significantly increase the costs associated with\u00a0acquiring\u00a0visas and subject companies that use these visas to new levels of compliance scrutiny.<\/p>\n

The US government\u2019s new visa initiatives are focused on protecting US workers, but experts are anxious that they could have the unintended consequence of driving innovation overseas by barring US companies from accessing key talent. Although the ultimate impact of the\u00a0new changes\u00a0remains to be seen, with\u00a0legal challenges<\/a>\u00a0to those changes starting to surface, now is the time for US companies to consider the impact they could have and the best way to respond.<\/p>\n

The goal of the new H-1B visa initiatives\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

In a \u201cproclamation<\/a>\u201d issued by the White House on September 19, 2025, President Trump\u00a0stated\u00a0that the H-1B nonimmigrant visa program is being abused by US companies in a way that undermines US economic and national security. The proclamation says the program, which was designed to \u201cbring temporary workers into the United States to perform additive, high-skilled functions,\u201d is being exploited. The result, President Trump says, is \u201clarge-scale replacement of American workers through systemic abuse of the program.\u201d<\/p>\n

The proclamation\u00a0identifies\u00a0US information technology firms as being among the hardest hit by the abuses of the visa program. It says the systemic abuse of the program has incentivized artificially low labor costs in the IT industry, which has empowered companies to \u201cclose their IT divisions, fire their American staff, and outsource IT jobs to lower-paid foreign workers.\u201d<\/p>\n

To discourage the exploitation of the program, the proclamation puts in place a new fee structure for H-1B visa applications. Previously, US companies could expect to pay between $2,000 and $5,000 per application, with the understanding that the application could be denied for a variety of reasons. Under the terms of the new proclamation, the fee has\u00a0been increased\u00a0to $100,000.<\/p>\n

The new fee structure will be in effect for 12 months following its effective date of September 21, 2025. It lists only one exemption from the new fees, which applies to \u201cany individual alien, all aliens working for a company, or all aliens working in an industry, if the Secretary of Homeland Security determines, in the Secretary\u2019s discretion, that the hiring of such aliens to be employed as H-1B specialty occupation workers is in the national interest and does not pose a threat to the security or welfare of the United States.\u201d<\/p>\n

The US Department of Labor announced on the same day the proclamation was issued that it was launching\u00a0Project Firewall<\/a>\u00a0as part of an initiative to \u201cprotect America\u2019s highly skilled workforce.\u201d The department said the project will focus on maximizing H-1B visa compliance through secretary-certified investigations, adding that this is the first time such investigations have been carried out in the department\u2019s history.<\/p>\n

The concerns\u00a0emerging\u00a0in the business world\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Within days of the H-1B proclamation, media outlets began warning of the negative effects its provisions could have on US business. The main concern is that the elevated fees would make it impossible for US companies to recruit foreign talent, opening doors for foreign workers to take their skills elsewhere.<\/p>\n

A\u00a0Forbes report<\/a>\u00a0called the elevated visa fees \u201ca gift to European AI startups,\u201d arguing that non-US startup hubs like London and Paris, which have grown accustomed to \u201csteady streams of young talent shipping off\u201d to Silicon Valley, could\u00a0greatly benefit\u00a0from the shift. Forbes also noted that the new challenges facing US companies coincide with a particularly intense\u00a0talent war in AI<\/a>.<\/p>\n

A\u00a0CNBC report<\/a>\u00a0suggested that workers locked out of the US by the new visa rules could find employment in Europe, where a better work-life balance is seen as a key draw. The report quoted an executive from a European venture capital firm who said the changes were a \u201cunique opportunity\u201d that European companies \u201cshouldn\u2019t let slip.\u201d<\/p>\n

The measures US companies should be considering\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Early\u00a0reports<\/a>\u00a0say some tech giants, including Nvidia, will continue to apply for the visas despite the elevated costs. Smaller companies, however, will be hard-pressed to absorb the fees, especially since filing an application\u00a0doesn\u2019t\u00a0guarantee that the visa will be issued.<\/p>\n

That leaves smaller US companies, along with others who\u00a0aren\u2019t\u00a0willing to pay the new fees, with a talent pool composed primarily of US workers. Companies that turn to that pool will find US workers in higher demand and most likely\u00a0expecting\u00a0higher pay, which is the outcome the new policies are\u00a0seeking.<\/p>\n

As the talent market shifts, companies will be wise to take steps to hold onto the foreign workers they currently have access to under H-1B visas. The new rules impose the $100,000 fees only on new visa applications, which means renewals or transfers\u00a0don\u2019t\u00a0carry the heavy costs. Consequently, the shift could trigger a season in which companies focus their hiring efforts on recruiting foreign talent away from competitors rather than recruiting new talent from other countries.<\/p>\n

To avoid losing talent, companies should ensure they are creating a culture and environment that attracts and\u00a0retains\u00a0employees. Skilled talent, including both H-1B visa holders and US workers, is more likely to remain with their current company if they receive fair compensation, attractive benefits, and value the company\u2019s culture.<\/p>\n

The changes to the US visa program come at a time when US companies are locked in a fierce battle for tech talent. To date, companies have shown they are willing to spend well to secure talent. Whether the new $100,000 fee will cause them to pivot away from foreign talent remains to be seen. What is clear, however, is that companies in countries that\u00a0don\u2019t\u00a0face similar recruiting hurdles are ready to welcome foreign talent that is turned away from US shores.<\/p>\n
