A complete guide for Indian founders and investors exploring US relocation via L-1, E-2 (via Grenada/Turkey), and EB-5 visas.

US Relocation Options for Indian Entrepreneurs

The USA remains the world’s most attractive destination for Indian founders, tech professionals, and business owners. Fortunately, Indians have multiple pathways.

L-1 Visa — Transfer Your Business to the US

Perfect for Indian entrepreneurs who already run a functional company in India.

Benefits

• fast processing
• spouse gets work authorization
• potential green card via EB-1C
• no fixed investment amount

E-2 Visa — Available to Indians Through a Second Passport

Since India is not an E-2 treaty country, Indians must first get a passport from Grenada or Turkey.

Why Founders Love E-2

• start a business in the US
• renewable indefinitely
• relatively low investment
• fast approvals

EB-5 Visa — Direct Investment Route to Green Card

The most secure and direct method to get a US green card.

Key Points

• investment starts around USD 800,000
• green card for entire family
• clear long-term pathway

Conclusion

Indians have more US routes than ever before — and choosing the right one depends on your business model, investment capacity, and long-term residency goals.
