What is an E2 Visa
An E2 visa is a nonimmigrant visa that allows citizens of certain countries to invest in and operate a business in the United States. It’s also known as the Investor Visa.
To get an E2 visa, you must invest a substantial amount of capital in a US business and direct and develop that business. You can either start a new business or invest in an existing business to qualify for an E2 visa.

How long can you stay on an E-2 Visa?
Qualified treaty investors and employees will be allowed a maximum initial stay of two years. Requests for extension of stay in, or changes of status to, E-2 classification may be granted in increments of up to two years each. No limit exists to the number of extensions an E-2 nonimmigrant may be given. All E-2 nonimmigrants, however, must maintain an intention to depart the United States when their status expires or is terminated.
