How can I change my visa appointment to another country? - Inscription My body my rules against gray background

I'm moving to another country before the appointment.

When I login to my visa account, I don't see an option to change the country. Only city.

Presuming that both of the US Consulates in the countries you're trying to change from and to both use the ustraveldocs.com/CGI Federal website (as most but not all countries do), then you will need to open a support request with them to have your "profile" changed between countries.

Alternatively you might be able to create a new account with them using a different email address, however if you've already entered your passport details on the website for the original country then this will NOT work without manual intervention, so it's not generally a good idea.

Note that any fee payments you've made will NOT transfer between the two countries, so if you've already paid the fee for the appointment you will need to pay it again in the new country - which may be difficult depending on which country it's in (eg, some require it paid locally using cash, whilst others allow the use of credit cards)

Can I transfer my visa interview to another country?

It is generally not possible to transfer your DS160 application/visa petition from one Consulate to another, unless the Consulates are located in one country and they specifically confirmed that you can attend an appointment at a different location than you originally selected on your DS-160 application.

Can I reschedule my visa appointment to a different location?

Of course. You can reschedule your appointment (for a future date only) and up to a maximum of two times. If you are late or have missed your appointment on the scheduled day, the system will not allow you to reschedule or cancel, and you will be required to book a new appointment after 24 hours.

Can I change visa interview country after payment?

You can change the US embassy or choose a different city for your US visa interview after filling DS-160 without changing or filing a new DS160 visa application form. The new US consulate that you choose should be within the same country.
