Although many investors use franchises to qualify, a franchise is not automatically more approvable than a startup or independent business—you must still meet all E-2 Visa requirements. First, confirm that the franchise allows E-2 Visa applicants. Some franchisors do not accept foreign investors using E-2 status, so your first step is to ask the franchisor directly. If they decline, you must choose a different franchise before moving forward. Next, ensure the franchise can help you meet the core requirement that your business is real and operational at the time of application. This means the business must exist, have U.S. employees, and—depending on the model—may need to be servicing clients before you receive the visa. You cannot work before approval, but your employees can. If the franchise is location-based, you must complete all franchise build-out requirements, including layout, branding, required equipment, and interior specifications. This can add time and cost to the project. For service-based, mobile, or home-service franchises, location requirements may be minimal, but you still need U.S. staff and customers lined up for launch. In addition, confirm that you can obtain all licenses and permits before your visa interview. Some franchises require industry-specific permits, city business licenses, or state certifications—all of which fall under the E-2 requirement of proving the business is “real and operational.” For a strong E-2 franchise application, you should show: ✅A franchisor that accepts E-2 investors ✅A completed or near-complete location setup (if applicable) ✅Required licenses and permits ✅U.S. employees hired ✅Customers or contracts ready for fulfillment If you’ve identified a franchise you love and they support E-2 applicants, Rupert Law Group can guide you through the next steps of the E-2 Visa process. 👍 Like, subscribe, and share with someone who might find this useful! #E2Visa #E1Visa #USImmigration #InvestorVisa #TradeVisa #StartABusinessUSA #USBusinessVisa #E2VisaAttorney #RupertLaw #ImmigrationTips #MoveToTheUSA #BusinessImmigration #USVisaProcess #visarequirements _________________________________________ Video Chapters: 00:09 - Introduction & Welcome 00:35 - Can You Use a Franchise for an E2 Visa? 01:13 - First Step: Does the Franchise Accept E2 Visa Applicants? 01:50 - The "Real and Operational" Requirement Explained 02:17 - Will Your Business Be Operational Before Visa Approval? 03:13 - Space Requirements for Different Types of Franchises 04:19 - Licensing & Permits: What You Need to Know *Nothing in this video or description should be considered a guarantee of any result.
