E1 Treaty Traders & E2 Treaty Investor Visa

Treaty Visas: E1 & E2 Visas in South Florida

Promoting International Trade & Commerce in the U.S.

If you are an investor overseas, there is no doubt that you wish to grow your business as much as possible. Expanding your trade into the U.S. is a milestone desired by many investors and it is made possible by filing for an E1 or E2 visa. Only investors from certain countries with an established trade treaty with the U.S. can petition for an E1 or E2 visa.

Which one is right for you?

  • E1 Visas - E1 visas are for individuals who reside in a treaty country and conduct a significant amount of trade with the U.S, either as a business owner or essential employee. Although there is no minimum amount of trade established to qualify, the level of trade must be high enough to qualify for this kind of visa.
  • E2 Visas - E2 visas are for individuals who have made significant investments in the U.S. and who reside in a treaty country. The investment must be made in an operating business and must have been made before petitioning for a visa. Like the E1 visa, there is no minimum amount of trade established to qualify, but the higher the trade level, the higher the chances that your visa will be approved.

FAQ

Common Answers To Your Questions


  • I’m a foreign national studying in the U.S., can I stay within the country following graduation?
    To stay in the country following graduation, a student will need to obtain an H-1B temporary worker visa. Typically, graduates who work in a specialty field (such as a medical professional or engineer) will be able to obtain this visa with ease. To ensure that this process moves smoothly, it is recommended that students apply for this visa as early as possible to avoid penalties.
  • Can I become a citizen after I am granted permanent residency?
    Yes! If you live in the country for five years as a permanent resident, you will be able to obtain citizenship through naturalization. To be eligible for this, however, you must have been physically living in the country for at least half of those five years – and must not have left for a time period longer than six months.
  • I am looking to adopt a foreign child – how can I make the process as fast as possible?
    For those who are looking into adoption, but have yet to identify the child that they are interested in adopting, it is recommended that they file an Application for Advance Processing of Orphan Petition. This will allow for the portion relating to the approval of the parents to be completed by the time the child is chosen so that the adoption process can be expedited.
  • If I become a citizen, what are the privileges that I will experience?
    There are three primary privileges that citizens can experience. These include being able to vote in local, state and national elections; having the ability to obtain a passport; and sponsoring relatives in their efforts to become a permanent resident.
