The H-1B move will hit the US tech industry especially hard, as it relies on the programme to bring in skilled workers from India and China.

The proclamation will reportedly mention "abuse" of the programme and will restrict entry unless payment is made.

U.S. President Donald Trump plans to introduce a new $100,000 application fee for H-1B worker visas, according to a White House official.

Fee paid by companies set to transform high-skill work visa system, upon which technology sector relies heavily.

Administration officials said the charge would help American workers’ wages by discouraging companies from using the visas to bring in lower-wage international workers.
