E-2 Treaty Investors
- The E-2 nonimmigrant classification allows a national of a treaty country (a country with which the United States maintains a treaty of commerce and navigation, or with which the United States maintains a qualifying international agreement, or which has been deemed a qualifying country by legislation) to be admitted to the United States when investing a substantial amount of capital in a U.S. business.
- Certain employees of such a person or of a qualifying organization may also be eligible for this classification.
- Examples of countries whose citizens qualify for an E-2 visa include Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Finland, Germany, France, Italy, the Netherlands, and the United Kingdom, among others.
