E2 Visa Requirements
Helping investors through the E2 visa process
The United States welcomes investors from Treaty countries through our E2 treaty investor visa program. The program is designed for nationals of treaty countries who want to invest in and manage a business in the United States.
The E2 treaty investor visa lets nationals of treaty countries live in the United States while they own and run a business here. There is no fixed minimum investment, the visa can be renewed for as long as the business operates, and your spouse can apply for work authorization. Start with the E2 visa requirements, read how the E2 visa process works from business plan to consular interview, or see the answers to the most common questions in our E2 visa FAQ.

E1 Visa Requirements
The E-1 Visa is designed for individuals or companies from treaty countries who engage in substantial trade between their home country and the United States. This visa option allows qualified foreign nationals to enter and work in the U.S. based on trade activities.
If you’re from a treaty country and your business trades goods, services, or technology with the United States, the E-1 Visa could be your path to living and working in the U.S. To qualify, you must show substantial, continuous trade between your country and the U.S., with most of that trade happening between the two nations. The key is a true two-way exchange of products, services, or technology flowing in both directions.
