US-ILC REPRESENTS IN ALL 50 STATES

E-1 – Treaty Traders

Nationals of countries that have a treaty of commerce and navigation with the U.S. may obtain E-1 visas. However, they must be coming to the U.S. solely to engage in substantial international trade between their country and the U.S. While E-1 visas are initially granted for two years, they can be extended indefinitely if the foreign national continues to meet the eligibility requirements. Spouses and children under 21 can also accompany E-1 visa holders, as well as employees of a treaty trader or a company that has the nationality of the treaty country.
