This rule amends the Immigration and Naturalization Service (``the Service'') regulations by codifying existing policy guidelines related to the ``E'' nonimmigrant treaty trader and treaty investor visa classification. This rule closely tracks a rule being published simultaneously by the Department of State (``State'') and is intended to ensure consistent adjudication of applications for ``E'' nonimmigrant visa classification by the Service and State. It also furthers Congress' intent to facilitate trade and investment between the United States and countries with whom the United States has treaties and agreements.
