Bill Summary

A BILL To include Peru in the list of foreign states whose nationals are eligible for admission into the United States as E- 1 and E-2 nonimmigrants if United States nationals are treated similarly by the Government of Peru.

AI Summary

This bill seeks to add Peru to the list of countries whose nationals can enter the United States as E-1 (treaty traders) and E-2 (treaty investors) nonimmigrants, contingent upon Peru offering reciprocal treatment to U.S. nationals. Specifically, the bill amends the Immigration and Nationality Act to allow Peruvian nationals to obtain these special visas, but only if the Peruvian government provides equivalent nonimmigrant status to U.S. citizens. E-1 and E-2 visas are temporary work visas that allow individuals from countries with specific trade or investment treaties to enter the United States to conduct substantial trade or make significant investments. By requiring reciprocity, the bill ensures that U.S. and Peruvian nationals will have similar opportunities for business-related travel and economic engagement between the two countries. The act can be referred to by its full name, the "Promoting Economic Resilience and Unity Act of 2025" or its acronym, the "PERU Act of 2025".
