America: E2 Treaty Investor-Visa
The US Citizenship and Immigration Service designed the E2 visa for businesspersons who want to buy or establish a business in America. The visa is valid as long as the immigrant is active in the company. Spouses and children under 21 years of age will also receive a visa. Spouses may work outside the company and children may study. Children aged 21 or over must obtain their own separate visas.
Requirements for the E2 visa
The investor must:
- be a national of a treaty country
- have control of the funds, and the investment must be at risk in the commercial sense
- create employment
- come to the USA to develop and steer the enterprise.
The investment:
- must be substantial
- must be a real operating enterprise
- may not be marginal.
How to obtain an E2 visa
To qualify for an E2 visa, you need a concrete project or business plan. This must be based on a business you have bought or you will take an option on. Buysse Immigration cooperates with business specialists who assist in this process by, for example, evaluating the purchase or selecting a business opportunity which meets the immigration criteria.
