E-2 Visa

An E-1 or E-2 visa is only available to a citizen of a country that has the right kind of agreement with the United States. Roughly 80 countries qualify, but the two categories do not travel together: some countries support only E-1 treaty trader status, others only E-2 treaty investor status, and most support both. The first question in any E case is therefore simply whether the applicant's nationality appears below, and in which column.
