Bulgarian Investor Secures 5-Year E-2 Visa in Switzerland
Bulgarian investor secures in E2 visa in Switzerland. We’ve had a successful approval of a five-year E2 visa for a Bulgarian investor, the maximum duration permitted under the U.S.-Bulgaria treaty. The entire process, from application to approval, took just two months at the U.S. Consulate in Switzerland.
For the E2 visa, the Bulgarian investor made a substantial cash investment of approximately $350,000 for a 50% stake in a Florida-based boat rental and yachting business. The company is using the E-2 visa to expand its successful European operations into the U.S. market.
The invested funds were strategically allocated to business needs, including the purchase of new boats, franchise fees, permits, licenses, commercial insurance, and legal fees. With the visa secured, the investor is ready to launch this exciting venture in Florida.

Overview of E2 Visa
The E-2 Investor Visa is a nonimmigrant visa for nationals of treaty countries to live and work in the U.S. by investing in a US business. This visa also extends to the investor’s spouse and unmarried children under 21. Furthermore, E-2 businesses can bring employees in executive, managerial, or specialized roles essential to the firm’s operations in the U.S. You can establish a new business or buy an existing business to qualify for the E-2.
You can apply for E2 visa at a US Consulate abroad or through change of status to E2, if you are in the US. Keep in mind that applying for E2 while in the USÂ is possible under certain circumstances, but is not available to individuals travelling to the United States on ESTA.
