Treaty Traders/Investors |
|
| |
The E-1 and E-2 Treaty Traders/Investors
category is for foreign nationals who would like to enter the US pursuant to
the provisions of a treaty of commerce and navigation or bilateral
trade agreement between the US and a foreign state. If and
individual enters under the Trader classification, he must enter the US solely to carry
on substantial trade in services or technology between the US and
the foreign state. If he enters under the Investor category, the individual must enter solely to develop and direct the operations of an
enterprise in which he has invested substantial capital.
Employees of the investor (or the established company) may work in
the US if they are: (1) a Manager, or (2) an Individual serving in a
technical capacity requiring training and qualifications to
establish the enterprise, train or supervise persons serving in
technical positions, or engage in monitoring or improving products.
