\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tAn attractive option for individuals holding citizenship in countries that have bilateral agreements with the United States is the \u201cE Visa.\u201d The United States has entered into treaties with specific countries aimed at promoting trade and investment, thereby encouraging commercial relationships. Citizens (individuals or companies) of countries that are part of these treaties with the United States can obtain visas to work in the United States to develop and direct their investments in and\/or trade with the United States.\nEsses vistos s\u00e3o chamados de vistos E e existem dois tipos: E-1, destinado a indiv\u00edduos desses pa\u00edses que possuem empresas que desejam realizar neg\u00f3cios com empresas nos Estados Unidos; e o visto de investidor E-2, reservado para cidad\u00e3os ou empreendimentos que investem uma quantia substancial de fundos nos Estados Unidos com a expectativa de criar empregos.\nThe E visa can be used by single investor enterprises as well as large multinational corporations. It\u2019s important to note that the E visa is a work visa and does not lead to obtaining a green card.
