Relocate Talent to the USA:
The J-1 Full-Service for Firms

Contents

You have identified a top talent you want to send to your US branch for 1 to 18 months. The goal: knowledge transfer and professional training. The obstacle: US bureaucracy. ESTA is insufficient, and immigration lawyers are expensive. Here is the efficient, digital path for HR managers and executives.

Corporate Strategy: Request Feasibility Check

Do you have the candidate and the US host company? We verify eligibility and create the legal roadmap. Fast, free & non-binding.

We typically respond within 24 hours with a professional Go/No-Go assessment.

Why a “Business Trip” is a High-Risk Gamble

Many companies underestimate the legal risks. Sending employees for operational training on a standard ESTA or B-1 (visitor status) often results in:

  • Immediate Rejection at the airport (Port of Entry).
  • Multi-year Entry Bans for your employee, damaging their career.
  • Audit Risks for the US host company.

If an employee is part of your work processes (Training on the Job), the J-1 Visa is the only compliant path.

The Solution: Intern & Trainee Programs

The J-1 visa is the legal standard for international corporate exchange. We distinguish between two categories based on the candidate’s profile:

Intern: For students or recent graduates (Degree < 1 year).
Trainee: For professionals (Degree + 1 year exp. OR 5 years relevant exp.).
