Business Visa - Selling during conference

[pakodaram]

Hello friends,
I am coming to USA on a business visa and I would like to sell a few products we manufacture in India. I'll be bringing these items for a display during a expo. Can you please advise if I am allowed to sell the items during a temporary visit, and if, what specific restrictions or paperwork I need to complete.

Thank you for your time,
P

You can't sell the product on B1 visa.

You should declare the samples you are carrying at the port of entry.

If you say that you are going to sell them in the trade fair, they will deny the entry and may cancel your visa and deport you immediately.

This is my opinion, not a legal advice.
