H.R. 1056 — To include the Czech Republic in the list of foreign states whose nationals are eligible for admission into the United States as E1 nonimmigrants if United States nationals are treated similarly by the Government of the Czech Republic.

This bill allows a national of the Czech Republic to qualify for E-1 nonimmigrant status if the Czech Republic provides similar nonimmigrant status to U.S. nationals. E-1 classification allows nationals of certain countries (i.e., those with a treaty of commerce and navigation with the United States, those under a qualifying international agreement, or those deemed to qualify through statute) to be admitted solely to engage in international trade, along with their families and employees.
