The E-2 Visa
For a fraction of the investment required for an EB5 petition an E-2 visa allows an investor establish or operate a business in the United States. Unlike the L1 visa thee is no requirement that E-2 visa holders transfer from a related non-US business.
While E-2 visas are not generally available to Brazilian Nationals Davies & Associates have assisted Brazilian clients to obtain an E-2 by:
- Obtaining Italian Nationality
- Acquiring other passports by investment.
- Marriage to a National of an E-2 Treaty Trader Country
For as little as USD 200,000.00 and a process just taking months it is possible to obtain a second passport from a country whose Nationals can obtain US E-2 treaty trader visas. This process is often still cheaper than acquiring a US EB-5 investment visa and usually results in attaining visa-free access to Europe.
