E2 USA Visa

United States of America

US is one of two countries in the world that forces citizens who do not live in the US to pay taxes on their worldwide income. Even if you hold a Green Card though spend most of your time abroad you will still be required to submit to US tax law. For this reason some Americans we work with end up choosing to renounce citizenship. When doing business abroad paying US taxes and dealing with the rusty American bureaucratic machine can become a huge waste of time and money. Many entrepreneurs would rather not deal with the stress, paperwork, or pay US income tax at all.

The E-2 Treaty Investor visa allows an investor to live in the US in exchange for a significant investment made towards the economy. With an E-2 visa you will be able to live and do business in the US for a potentially unlimited amount of time though without the tax requirements of citizenship or a Green Card.

The E-2 Investors visa is a really solid option for those who want to do business in the US especially for those with no interest in US citizenship and its tax burdens.
One of the biggest pros of the E-2 investor visa is the processing time. While the popular EB-5 Immigrant visa for investors can take a few years to process the E-2 visa only takes a few months.
One of the biggest benefits of the E-2 visa over the EB-5 visa is the travel flexibility. For nomad capitalists the need to travel internationally for pleasure or to follow up on other business interests makes many investment visa programs impractical. Since the E-2 is a non-immigrant visa

and you will never be applying for citizenship you don’t have to meet stringent presence requirements. In fact in order to avoid being taxed on your worldwide income you will need to be out of the US for 243 days of the year.
