The E-2 lets you live in the US and run a business you have invested your own money in. We prepare the documents for the consulate or USCIS.
The E-2 is a nonimmigrant visa for an investor who puts their own funds into a real US business and runs it personally. Only citizenship of a country with a US treaty of commerce or investment qualifies — for example, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Ukraine, Georgia, Armenia, Azerbaijan or Moldova. Russia, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan and Belarus have no such treaty (per the State Department table as of October 2026). The law sets no fixed minimum investment. The spouse and children under 21 receive derivative status.
The consulate and USCIS check several conditions at once. Below is a brief summary as of October 2026.
USCIS updates its website periodically. If a link doesn't open, search for the category on uscis.gov.
We check the treaty country, the 3-year rule and the ownership structure.
The company is registered and funds are invested or held in escrow.
Source of funds, expenses, contracts, company operations.
DS-160 and a consular interview, or I-129 if you are lawfully in the US.
Since September 2025, almost all applicants have an in-person interview.
Extensions of 2 years each, with no limit, as long as the business operates.
Fees as of October 2026: E visa consular fee — $315; Form I-129 in the E category — $1,015 plus the $600 Asylum Program Fee ($300 for employers with up to 25 employees); premium processing — $2,965. Check amounts before paying.
The decision belongs to the consulate or USCIS, not to us. We don't promise a result — honestly, no one can. What we do: assemble the documents so the investment, the source of funds and the company's operations are proven consistently. Legal strategy — choice of country, the 3-year rule, the path to a green card — is handled by our partner licensed immigration attorneys. If we see the E-2 isn't right for you, we'll say so.
