US Commerce Secretary Penny Pritzker said on Tuesday she would look into India's concerns over a hike in visa fee for professionals.
New Delhi has protested against the hike, which it says is a barrier to the movement of workers.
"It is imperative that we look into that issue," Pritzker told a news conference in New Delhi at the end of a strategic and commercial dialogue between the two countries.
In March, India filed a complaint with the World Trade Organization (WTO), protesting against the doubling of the fees for H-1B and L-1 work visas and limits on their numbers.
