Turkey citizenship vs US EB-5 and E-2
How Turkish citizenship can be the affordable bridge to a US E-2 visa.
The US EB-5 green card requires roughly US$800,000–US$1,050,000. The US E-2 investor visa is cheaper but is only open to citizens of treaty countries — and Turkey is one. So becoming Turkish first can be an affordable bridge to living and running a business in the US on an E-2 visa.

Why Turkey is part of the US conversation
Bangladesh is not a US E-2 treaty country, so Bangladeshi nationals cannot use the E-2 visa directly. Turkey is an E-2 treaty country. By obtaining Turkish citizenship, a Bangladeshi investor becomes eligible to apply for the US E-2 visa — typically a far lower commitment than the EB-5 green card. The E-2 has its own separate requirements and is not automatic.

What is the smart sequence?
If a US green card is the goal and budget allows, EB-5 is the direct path. If you want US business presence more affordably, Turkish citizenship followed by an E-2 application is a well-known sequence. We coordinate the Turkish side; US immigration counsel handles the E-2.

Not directly — Bangladesh is not an E-2 treaty country. Becoming a Turkish citizen (Turkey is a treaty country) makes you eligible to apply for the E-2, which has its own requirements.
Yes. Turkey starts at a US$400,000 recoverable property, versus roughly US$800,000–US$1,050,000 for EB-5 — and Turkey’s passport then opens the E-2 route.
