What Is an L-1 Visa?

The L-1 visa is a nonimmigrant visa that allows U.S. employers to transfer employees from a foreign office to a U.S. office. It also provides a path for foreign companies to open a new office in the United States, offering a strategic option for international expansion.

There are two main types of L-1 visas:

  • L-1A: For executives and managers
  • L-1B: For employees with specialized knowledge

Both visa types allow eligible employees to live and work in the U.S., often with their spouse and children, and they can also be a stepping stone toward permanent residency (green card).

Who Qualifies for an L-1 Visa?

To qualify for an L-1 visa, several key criteria must be met:

  • The employee must have worked for a related foreign company (such as a parent, subsidiary, affiliate, or branch) for at least one continuous year within the last three years.
  • The employer must have a qualifying relationship with a U.S. company or be in the process of establishing a new U.S. office.
  • The employee must be coming to the U.S. to work in an executive, managerial, or specialized knowledge capacity.

For start-ups or businesses establishing new operations in the U.S., additional documentation is required to prove the viability of the new office.
