My current H1B Visa is stamped till Aug 2020. And if I travel outside the US in the coming months, will it be a problem? I have a trip planned in March 2020 to Europe for a week.

Any suggestions would be great.

Can I enter the US with less than 6 months on my visa?

You can legally stay in the United States until the expiration of your authorized period of stay. However, you will not be able to travel to the United States Port of Entry to seek a new admission unless your visa has been renewed by the American Embassy in your country of Nationality.

How close to visa expiry can you travel?

As long as you have a valid multiple entry visa to the USA, you may travel to the USA any time before the expiration date. That's why there's an expiration date. Utterly separately, some countries require you to have a passport with at least 90 days validity on the day you leave that country.

Can I travel to the US with a visa which is about to expire?

A visa must be valid at the time a traveler seeks admission to the United States, but the expiration date of the visa (validity period/length of time the visa can be used) has no relation to the length of time a temporary visitor may be authorized by the Department of Homeland Security to remain in the United States.

How long do you have to leave the country after visa expires?

You may be banned from reentering the U.S. for three years. This happens if you stay in the U.S. for more than 180 days but less than 1 year after your visa expiration date, but leave the country before formal removal proceedings begin.
