Ep. 29 - Tattoo Visa: THOUSANDS of Visa Approvals and Lives Changed

Tattoo Visa has an unbelievable track record when it comes to visa approvals for tattoo artists: 100%. Lead attorney Katia Teirstein joined the show to discuss how O-1 visas and EB-1 green cards work for tattoo artists, how she learned how the tattoo industry works, and how her firm helps international artists navigate the immigration process.

Tattoo Visa is an NYC-based, all-female boutique law firm dedicated to helping some of the world's best tattoo artists immigrate to the United States. They have upwards of 300 clients at a time, and their efforts have resulted in over 1,000 visa approvals. Recently, they helped Eden resident artist Tam Gallardo secure an O1 visa and immigrate from Argentina. Their outstanding client lists includes famous tattoo artists such as Yomico Moreno, Jose Contreras, Daniel Luzardo, and Darwin Enriquez.

In their dedication to serving the tattoo industry, they have guidebooks available for artists and tattoo studios (petitioners) looking to start this process.
