How to Get an E-2 Visa?
What is an E-2 Investor Visa?
E-2 visas offer a pathway for foreign investors to temporarily live and work in the United States. This non-immigrant visa category is designed to encourage foreign investment and business development in the U.S. economy.
E-2 visas offer flexibility in terms of business type and size, as long as the investment is considered “substantial” with the total cost of the business.
Dr. Tamara Relis, Esq. and her team do all to understand the complexities of business and investment immigration and your specific needs as an entrepreneur, or independent professional.
- 1. Who qualifies?: Ensure you are a citizen of an E-2 treaty country and meet the investment requirements. Consult the U.S. Department of State's website for a list of eligible countries.
*Limited Spots Available
- 2. E-2 visa Minimum Investment: Make a substantial investment in your U.S. business. The amount required varies depending on the industry and business type, but it must be sufficient to establish and operate the business.
- 3. Supporting Documentation: Includes proof of investment, business plan, financial statements, and evidence of ownership, etc.
- 4. File Forms with Robust Supporting Evidence at your local US Consulate if overseas, or on Form I-129: Petition for a Nonimmigrant Worker to USCIS if inside the U.S.. This will detail your business and your role as an investor or senior manager.
- 5. Interview and Visa: Be prepared to discuss your business, investment, and petition. Upon approval, you will receive your E-2 visa to start working in your approved business in the U.S. right away!
What does it mean for my funds to be "Irrevocably Committed"?
You cannot simply show $100,000 in a bank account and ask for a visa. USCIS requires the money to be “at risk.” This means you must have already spent the money (on equipment, leases, marketing, or inventory) or placed it in an Escrow Account that is legally bound to be released upon the approval of your visa.
I am from a non-treaty country (like India or Brazil). Is there any way for me to get an E-2?
Directly, no. However, many entrepreneurs use the “Citizenship-by-Investment” (CBI) bridge. In 2026, you can obtain citizenship in a treaty country (like Turkey or Grenada) and then apply for the E-2 as a national of that country.
Does my spouse have to wait for a Work Permit (EAD) once we arrive?
No. This is one of the biggest “wins” for E-2 families. As of 2026, E-2 spouses are considered “Authorized Incident to Status.” When you enter the U.S., your spouse will receive an I-94 record with an “E-2S” code. This code serves as legal proof that they can work for any U.S. employer immediately.
