Legal Question in Business Law in Florida

Dear attorney,

My name is Carlo Rodrigues, and I would like to open a business in Florida. But I am from Brazil, and although I travel often to the USA with a business VISA and maintain my lawful legal status by going back home prior to the expiration of a six month period, I do not have US citizenship yet nor a US permanent resident green card. My question to you is the following: What are the requirements that a foreign citizen needs to meet in order to open a business in the USA?

Thanks for answering

Carlo
