The E visa, intended for investors and traders who plan to maintain a business in the United States, requires proof that the commercial activity is legitimate and sustainable. This proof generally involves presenting documents that demonstrate the origin of the funds, financial movement, and business operation.
In the case of digital commerce, these data are often presented through bank statements, official transaction records, and other financial proofs. Without bank data, demonstrating the credibility and consistency of the business is more challenging, since these documents are strong foundations to validate the flow of money and the company’s financial health.
However, it is possible to use transaction records on online payment platforms, electronic invoices, contracts, and sales reports as complementary documents, provided they are well organized and clearly explained. Immigration authorities evaluate each case individually, highlighting the importance of documentary consistency and legal compliance.
It is recommended to seek expert guidance and exercise caution to avoid scams. Maintaining complete and organized documentation is essential to prove the viability of the business, even in the absence of traditional bank data.
