E-2 Visa for Treaty Investors
Serving Clients in Dallas and Nationwide
An E-visa is intended for treaty traders and treaty investors – E-1 is for traders and E-2 is for investors[1]. In order to qualify for an E-2 treaty investor visa, an individual must be a citizen of a country that has a treaty of commerce and navigation with the United States. For example:
- Australia
- Germany
- United Kingdom
- Canada
For a full list, visit the list of Treaty Countries provided by the U.S. Department of State, Bureau of Consular Affairs. The E-2 visa must be procured before an individual enters the country. In the event that the individual is already residing in the United States, a U.S. company may file a petition to have that investors’ status changed to E-2 by way of a Form I-129 (Petition for Nonimmigrant Worker).
Qualifying for an E-2 Visa
To qualify for an E-2, the individual must be:
- A national of a U.S. treaty country, and
- Invest substantial capital in a United States bona fide enterprise (producing profit).

The attorneys and paralegals and their assistants at Akula Law in Dallas handled my immigration case for the US efficiently, with care and with attentive responses to questions.
