The E-1 visa is intended for citizens of countries with trade treaties with the US and targets businesses and individuals conducting substantial trade between their countries and the United States, including goods and services, provided that the relevance and continuity of these operations are proven.
Graphic design services for clients in the US may qualify under the E-1 visa, as long as they represent substantial international trade, with regular contracts and a significant volume of transactions, and that all other visa requirements are met.
Each case is reviewed individually, with emphasis on documentation and proof of trade flows, and intangible services such as graphic design may be considered valid commercial operations.
It is essential to strictly follow US immigration laws and consult specialists to ensure compliance and avoid risks.
