E-2 Treaty Investor Visa

Your simpler path to living
and working in America

The E-2 Treaty Investor Visa allows eligible nationals of treaty countries, including Canada, to live and work in the United States by investing in and actively managing a qualifying U.S. business. EasyE2Visa provides a structured software licensing business model designed for prospective E-2 investors — with recurring subscription revenue and lower overhead than many traditional franchise models.

Not legal advice. EasyE2Visa is not a law firm and does not provide immigration legal advice. E-2 eligibility and visa approval depend on the applicant's individual circumstances and are determined by U.S. government authorities. Consult a qualified U.S. immigration attorney regarding your specific situation.
What is the E-2 Visa?

A visa built for
entrepreneurs like you

The E-2 Treaty Investor Visa allows nationals of 80+ countries to live and work in the United States by investing in a real American business. No employer. No lottery. Just you, your investment, and your future.

  • Live & work in the USA — through your qualifying business
  • Bring your eligible spouse and children — eligible E-2 spouses may obtain employment authorization under current U.S. rules
  • Renewable status — E-2 status may be renewed while the business and applicant continue to meet the applicable requirements
  • No single statutory minimum investment — the investment must be substantial relative to the business
  • Many business types may qualify — including software companies, franchises and startups

Citizens of 80+ countries qualify

Including Canada, UK, Australia, France, Germany, Japan, South Korea, Mexico, Italy, and many more.

  • No minimum investment amount set by law
  • Investment can be cash, equipment, or IP
  • No minimum number of jobs to create
  • Business can be software, a franchise, or a startup
  • Children attend U.S. public and private schools

Our Story

We walked this path
before you

We didn't start with a clear roadmap. We started exactly where you are — dreaming of a life in America, overwhelmed by options, and let down by people who should have known better.

We looked at franchises first

Like most people, franchises seemed like the obvious E-2 path. But the reality hit fast — the costs were staggering ($300,000 to over a million just to start), and that's before you even get approved. Franchisors vet you like a bank. Then months of training, build-out, permits, hiring. We're talking 3 to 12 months before you open your doors — let alone move your family.

The wrong "professionals" cost us time and money

We hired so-called experts who promised results. Fees paid upfront. Weeks turned into months. Phone calls went unreturned. No updates, no transparency, no accountability. The people we trusted most delivered the least. We lost time we couldn't get back — and money we couldn't recover.

Nobody told us there was a simpler way

The E-2 visa doesn't require a franchise. It doesn't require a restaurant, a storefront, or a million-dollar investment. It requires a real business, actively managed by you. That's it. No one in our circle told us that. We had to find it ourselves.

We discovered the software licensing model

A qualifying U.S. business. Recurring subscription revenue. Minimal business space required. Minimal staff to manage compared to a franchise — no storefront, no large team, no industry experience needed. No franchisor to impress, no approval committee to pass. We were set up and operational within days. The business plan was included. The documentation was structured. Everything just clicked.

Visa approved. We moved to the USA.

Lower cost. Less stress. A real business generating real revenue. Our family is here, settled, and building a life we'd only imagined. The kids are in school. Our network is growing. And we're doing it without years of experience in any industry.

Now we're here to help you do the same

We built EasyE2Visa so nobody else has to take the long, expensive road we did. You deserve straight answers, a clear path, and people who actually follow through.

We wasted months and thousands of dollars before we found what was right in front of us. The software licensing model was the answer — lower cost, a structured pathway, and a business we actually understood. We just wish someone had told us sooner.

invest your way to America

Forget expensive franchises. Our software licensing model gives you a real U.S. business at a fraction of the cost — designed to support an E-2 application, subject to applicable requirements.

Start Your Own Business

No prior business experience necessary. Our software licensing model is designed to be operated and actively managed by you — exactly what the E-2 requires.

Lowest Investment Cost

Traditional franchises demand $500,000–$2,000,000+ before you even open the doors. Our licensing pathway is designed to support an E-2 application, subject to applicable requirements — at a fraction of that cost.

Steady, Reliable Revenue

Subscription-based software licensing generates recurring monthly revenue — predictable income for your business and your lifestyle from day one.

Structured With E-2 in Mind

Our business model is designed around the E-2's core requirements: a bona fide enterprise, a real investment at risk, minimal business space required, and active management by you as the investor — without the overhead of a traditional franchise.

Operational Within Days

No franchisor approval. No build-out. No permits or fit-out delays. While a franchise takes 3–12 months to open its doors, your software license business can be fully set up and running within days of signing.

No Experience Needed

No tech background, no business background, no industry experience required. We provide full onboarding, training, and ongoing support — and connect you to a facilitator with every specialist you need along the way.

Why Not a Franchise?
