Nationals of E-2 treaty countries are eligible, the first gate we check.
UNITED STATES · E-2 PATHWAY
A visa built around your business.
E-2 Investor Pathway
E-2 is not a passive route. It rewards founders who land, lead, and run a real US business, and keeps rewarding them at every renewal.
THE OPPORTUNITY
Invest, relocate and lead a real US business through the treaty-investor route.
E-2 is not a passive route. It rewards founders who land, lead, and run a real US business, and keeps rewarding them at every renewal. Alpha Oak coordinates the commercial, mobility and family considerations as one connected strategy, so the route works beyond approval or launch.
PROGRAMME SNAPSHOT
The shape of the route.
Three numbers worth knowing before you commit capital.
Typical initial admission window, indefinitely renewable while the business remains real and active.
Of E-2 cases we run involve a working, owner-led business, not a paper one.
WHAT E-2 ACTUALLY IS
A treaty visa. Not a passive investment.
The bar is substantial investment in a bona fide enterprise that you direct. Everything else, vehicle, sector, scale, flows from that single test.WHAT MATTERS
Four essentials every E-2 file must answer.
Examiners read for these. We write them in from the first draft.
01Treaty nationality
A qualifying passport, checked first, before any capital is committed or business is incorporated.
02Substantial investment
No statutory floor, but the capital must be proportional to the business, at-risk, and irrevocably committed.
03A real enterprise
Operating, generating revenue, hiring beyond yourself, not a vehicle held purely for the visa.
04Direct and develop
You lead the business, strategy, hiring, customer-facing decisions, not a passive shareholder behind a manager.
THE LONG VIEW
Three horizons inside an E-2.
ALPHA OAK · TREATY DESK
We design the business so the visa fits.
Not the other way round. Corporate, immigration, banking and capital plan are sequenced as one file, so renewal in five years is the same file, only stronger.
