Category O-1B Visa

For creative professionals, the United States is often the ultimate stage. The O-1B Visa serves individuals who possess ‘extraordinary ability’ in the arts or ‘extraordinary achievement’ in motion pictures and television. Unlike the H-1B, this visa has no annual quotas. It allows for a flexible, project-based itinerary, making it the gold standard for Hollywood talent, Broadway performers, and global artists.
