H-1B hike is Trump’s 2nd blow to gems & jewellery
Hindustan Times Pune
|October 13, 2025
Donald Trump's decision to hike H-IB visa fees may have put the spotlight on India’s information technology (IT) services industry, but it has also delivered a twin blow to the gems and jewellery sector—which is not only reeling from tariffs but also has thousands of artisans and technicians working in the US on these work permits.
“Indian jewellers employ gemologists, metallurgists, quality control scientists, IT professionals on H-1B visa,” said Poorvi Chothani, Immigration attorney and managing partner, LawQuest. “The additional cost of $100,000 may also deter employers from engaging H-IB workers. The jewellers may just offshore the roles-they will get these jobs done overseas.”
