VISAS FOR ENTREPRENEURS
TYPES OF AMERICAN VISAS FOR ENTREPRENEURS
Entrepreneurs have several visa options to enter the United States and develop their businesses. Some of the relevant visas for entrepreneurs include:
1. E-2 Visa (Treaty Investor): This visa is intended for citizens of countries with investment treaty agreements with the USA. It allows the investor and their family to enter the USA to manage and develop a business in which they have invested substantially. There is no fixed minimum investment amount, but the investment must be sufficient to ensure the success of the enterprise.
2. L-1 Visa (Intra-company Transfer): If you are the owner or a key executive of a company in Brazil that has a branch, subsidiary, or affiliate in the USA, you may be eligible for an L-1 visa. The L-1A visa is for executives and managers, while the L-1B is for employees with specialized knowledge. This allows you to transfer your business operation or start a new operation in the USA.
3. O-1 Visa (Extraordinary Ability): If you are an entrepreneur with extraordinary skills in your field, you may qualify for the O-1 visa. This visa is for individuals who have demonstrated an exceptional level of achievement in their fields, whether in business, science, technology, art, sports, etc.
4. EB-5 Visa (Immigrant Investor): Although it is an immigrant visa, the EB-5 is relevant to entrepreneurs who want to invest in the USA and obtain permanent residency (green card). It requires a significant investment in a new commercial enterprise that creates jobs for U.S. citizens or permanent residents.
5. B-1 Visa (Business): Although it is a temporary visitor visa, the B-1 visa can be used by entrepreneurs to participate in business meetings, conferences, contract negotiations, and other temporary business activities in the USA.

VISA FOR INVESTORS
TYPES OF AMERICAN VISAS FOR INVESTORS
The United States offers several specific visa types for foreign investors who wish to enter the country to invest in businesses or projects. Some of the main types of investor visas include:
1. E-2 Visa (Treaty Investor): This visa is for citizens of countries that have trade or investment treaties with the United States. It allows the investor and their family to enter the USA to manage and develop a business in which they have invested substantially. There is no fixed minimum investment
amount, but the investment must be substantial enough to ensure the ongoing success of the enterprise.
2. EB-5 Visa (Immigrant Investor): The EB-5 visa is an immigrant visa that offers foreign investors the opportunity to obtain permanent residency (green card) in the United States. Investors must make a substantial investment in a new commercial enterprise that creates jobs for U.S. citizens or permanent residents. The minimum investment amount varies depending on the location of the enterprise but is generally $1 million (or $500,000 in high-unemployment targeted employment areas).
3. L-1 Visa (Intra-company Transfer): While not strictly an investor visa, the L-1 visa allows executives, managers, and employees with specialized knowledge from foreign companies to transfer to U.S. branches, subsidiaries, or affiliates. This can be relevant for investors looking to establish or expand their operations in the USA.
4. B-5 Visa (Business Visitor for Investors): The B-5 visa is a business visitor visa that can be used by foreign investors to visit the United States for the purpose of investigating investment opportunities, attending business meetings, and conducting research activities.
Each type of visa has its own requirements and eligibility criteria, and it is important to fully understand the available options before making investment and immigration-related decisions. Consulting with our immigration specialists is highly recommended to ensure you choose the most suitable visa for your specific circumstances.
