Immigration Tips for International Business Travelers During the Pandemic
June 3, 2021
In the economic development world, site visits from company executives, who often arrive from every corner of the globe, are a typical day…but during the last year business travel has virtually stopped, or declined sharply, while the world faced the challenges of the pandemic. As vaccines continue to combat the pandemic, we are slowly seeing some site visits resume. While remote visits and virtual site tours have kept the company relocation and expansion processes moving forward, we are eager for the day when we can meet again — face-to-face — with company executives and site selection teams, as international companies consider the United States as a place to locate or expand their business.
Our economic development team is deeply engaged on numerous projects considering a variety of states, and we have teamed up with our immigration partners to compile a guide for companies as they resume business travel from overseas. We hope this guide is useful to you, and we stand ready to assist in your economic development (incentive, real estate, corporate, tax, immigration, environmental, etc.) needs.
