I am a foreign citizen in Vietnam. I have B1/B2 visa. I want to buy and operate a gas station in US. What can I do?
Dear Tuan,
You can certainly own a gas station in the U.S., not being a U.S. citizen or resident. Keep in mind, however, that without proper work authorization it would be illegal for you to be employed directly by this business. So I presume you would need to find a manager (or a management company) to handle the day to day operations of the business.
We have prepared a few articles and other resources to help international clients open business in the US, and I invite you to check them here:

The instrument presented was either declined by the processor or bank, or it can't be used for this payment.
Try again later.
(a) You made a typo in the card number, CCV code, expiration date, name or address;
(b) Your card balance is too low;
(c) Issuing bank has declined this transaction for some other reason related to your account.
