L-1A Dismissed — Freight Transportation: did not establish it was 'doing business' in the United

Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate it was 'doing business' in the United States. The petitioner, a freight transportation and import/export company, did not provide sufficient documentary evidence such as customs forms or a warehouse lease to substantiate its operations. Additionally, the director noted that with the beneficiary being the sole employee, it was unlikely they were performing primarily managerial or executive duties.
