P-1S Visa Consultation Letters for Esports Support Professionals

Are you supporting a P-1A esports athlete or team coming to the U.S. for competition?

The Esports Trade Association (ESTA) provides official industry consultation letters required for your P-1S petition. These letters are fast, reliable, and recognized by immigration attorneys and U.S. officials nationwide.

What is the P-1S Visa?

The P-1S visa is a nonimmigrant visa for essential support personnel who accompany a P-1A visa holder, whether an individual athlete or an internationally recognized esports team. In esports, this often includes coaches, analysts, managers, producers, and other staff members whose services are vital to the team’s success during competitions and events in the U.S.

Who Can Use ESTA's P-1S Peer Letter Service?

• Coaches, managers, or analysts supporting a P-1A esports team

• Technical or broadcast staff working alongside a P-1A athlete or group

• Longstanding team members integral to performance operations

• Immigration attorneys filing P-1S petitions for esports support staff

What's in the Peer Letter?

ESTA’s peer advisory letter confirms your essential role in supporting a P-1A beneficiary by reviewing:

• Your working relationship with the athlete or team

• Your contributions to the team’s performance and success

• Your involvement in upcoming U.S. tournaments or appearances

• Why your role is essential and cannot be easily replaced

Each letter is customized to your case and signed by ESTA leadership, a trusted authority in the esports industry.
