Requesting a Letter of Invitation
Obtaining a Letter of Invitation from NAB will not guarantee that your U.S. visa application will be approved. The Letter is merely supplementary information that explains a visa applicant’s intended purpose of travel to the United States. U.S. Embassy officers look at the totality of an applicant’s personal and professional situation in determining visa eligibility.
- Complete your NAB Show online registration form - Include your email address, date of birth and passport number.
- Your Letter of Invitation will be automatically and immediately emailed to you.
- Print the letter in color and submit it along with your visa application to the U.S. Embassy/Consulate.
- Start the process approximately 90 days prior to your departure to the U.S.
- We recommend that you do not purchase your airline ticket until your visa application has been approved.
After April 1 2011, NAB will not be able to process any new requests for a Letter of Invitation. Complete a registration in full for each person requiring a Letter of Invitation. Only requests submitted via the online registration form will be processed.
