United States of America - E2 Visa Business Migration

The U.S. E‑2 Treaty Investor visa offers entrepreneurs from treaty countries a fast, flexible way to live in America and run a business. There is no fixed minimum investment; you must place a substantial, at‑risk amount into a bona fide, active enterprise that is not marginal and can generate more than just the owner’s living. You must own at least 50% or have operational control and be coming to develop and direct the venture.

Eligible structures include starting a new company, acquiring an existing business, or operating a franchise. Acceptable spend typically covers lease, equipment, inventory, payroll, and marketing, with funds lawfully sourced and irrevocably committed. Companies may bring same‑nationality executives and essential employees on E‑2 status.

Process: form a U.S. entity, obtain EIN and bank account, prepare a business plan and financials, deploy capital, and gather evidence of operations. Apply at a U.S. consulate for an E‑2 visa (validity depends on reciprocity, up to five years) or file a USCIS change of status with premium processing. Each admission is granted in two‑year increments and can be renewed indefinitely while the business remains viable.

Spouses may work incident to status; children can study. Note: CBI‑acquired nationals need three years’ domicile.
