S 2989 United States Senate · 118th Congress

Nordic Trader and Investor Parity Act

This bill would add Iceland to the list of countries eligible for U.S. E-1 (treaty trader) and E-2 (treaty investor) visas, which allow foreign nationals to enter the U.S. for business or investment purposes. It requires that Iceland provide similar visa access to U.S. citizens as a condition for this change. The bill directly affects Icelandic business owners and investors seeking to establish or manage U.S. operations. This is a procedural change to immigration law, not a new policy, and aims to create visa parity with other treaty partners.
