Hi guys! I do not know if dressing to the nines or "to kill" is suitable for the interview. I have had interviews before for the Schengen visas. Just a polo shirt, and a decent trousers or jeans did the trick already. I do not know exactly for the US Embassy. Any idea?

I know three that have gone through the interview. They wore business casual attire. All were females and they wore dress slacks similar to an Office Uniform for women in Philippines and nice shirt. Look professional not flashy.

Good luck: Shawn

It's not the prom. Dress like you want to be taken seriously, like the previous poster said - business casual, yet professional

Good luck

Black pants white shirt. Dress Bangkok office style. It matters at that consulate. If you show up in tight jeans etc. they'll assume you work at a bar.
