E2 Visas
E2 Visas
Franchise opportunities in the United States can be an enticing option for investors and entrepreneurs who are considering an E-2 visa, as they reduce the time and substantial investment supposition required to set up a U.S. business from the ground up.
The E-2 visa relies heavily on your ability to provide a business plan and show a substantial investment to support the start-up and growth of your business, in addition to requiring your business is ready to start operating as soon as your visa is approved.
Purchasing an existing franchise could easily satisfy that requirement, but even when starting a franchise from scratch, investors can rely on the franchise protocol established by the franchisor.
E2 Visa Definition
The E2 visa is an investor visa that allows an individual to live in the United States and operate their own business, based on making an investment in a U.S. business. It is important to note that the E2 visa application process requires a substantial amount of documentation.

Our process matches aspiring applicants with E-2 friendly franchises that are complementary to your work skills and operational goals. A franchise that is ideally suited to your business skills provides a higher likelihood of E-2 Visa approval and a higher likelihood of overall financial success. An established franchise will also provide training and ongoing support. Franchises have a vested interest in helping you build your business as they receive royalties when you are profitable.
Investing in a franchise can be a smart strategy for not only obtaining an E2 visa, but for ensuring that you launch a successful business in the United States. However, a savvy E2 Investor will want to thoroughly investigate their options in determining if the franchise model is right for them.
