B-1 Visa (Business Visitors)

B-1 visas are best for foreign nationals planning to enter the U.S. to participate in short-term business activities such as meetings, contract negotiations, or training. While in the U.S., they cannot engage in actual paid employment. B-1 visas are only valid for up to six months, and applicants must provide evidence that they plan to return to their country of residence before their status expires. Despite that, B-1 visas can be extended for an additional six months, depending on business needs.
