  • Substantial Investment: While no minimum investment threshold is officially set, it’s advisable to commit between $50,000 to $200,000 USD or more to ensure a solid application foundation.

  • Controlling Interest: Investors are expected to maintain a controlling stake in the business, actively participating in its direction and development.

  • Proof of an Established U.S. Business: Evidential documents such as lease agreements, incorporation paperwork, and financial transactions must demonstrate the business's legitimacy and operational status.

  • Operational and Non-Marginal Business: The enterprise must clearly show its potential for significant economic contribution, supported by financial documents like annual reports, payroll records, and tax returns.

  • Renewable Status: The E-2 visa allows for indefinite extensions as long as the business remains active, granting the investor the flexibility to grow and adapt their venture over time.
