The L-1 visa in the United States allows businesses to hire foreign workers

This visa may be suitable for entrepreneurs who already have a functioning and legally registered business outside the United States. Such founders can launch a branch of their company in America and move to work in this subsidiary.

There are also some subtle points here. In particular, the immigration service will require justification for the need for the company to be present in the American market and for the presence of physical employees who come from abroad.

A local office must be opened before you apply for a visa. Among the supporting documents, immigration officers will be interested in a detailed business plan, confirmation of office lease. In addition, the employee must officially work in the foreign office of the parent company coming to the United States for at least a year.
