Who Can Apply For an E2 Visa?

The E-2 Visa allows you to come to the United States to run an American business in which you have invested a substantial amount of capital. It is also a great option for foreign entrepreneurs as you can use this visa to start a new U.S. business.

Whether you want to buy an existing business or start a new one, the E-2 Visa might be the best option for you. Neither of those actions requires a track record of success. However, E-2 Visas are difficult to obtain and are strictly regulated.

While the E-2 Visa is a highly sought-after and versatile visa, it is only available to nationals of countries that maintain treaties of commerce and navigation with the United States – commonly referred to as “Treaty Countries.”
