MARA Registered Agents
Expert Guidance on Migrating to Australia
Migrating to Australia involves navigating a complex visa application process where meeting the strict requirements of the Department of Home Affairs (DHA) is essential for success.
While the internet and online forums provide extensive information on immigration procedures, attempting to handle your own application can be risky and overwhelming without proper expertise.
To safeguard your application and ensure compliance with immigration regulations, the DHA strongly recommends engaging a migration agent registered with the Migration Agents Registration Authority (MARA). Without MARA registration, an individual cannot provide you with legal protection, leaving you vulnerable to immigration fraud and misinformation from unqualified sources.
Understanding MARA and Its Role
MARA is responsible for regulating migration agents and enforcing a strict code of conduct to maintain high industry standards. Only registered agents can legally offer migration advice in Australia. Agents practicing overseas, including in the UK, who are registered with MARA, are held to the same rigorous standards and ongoing professional development as those based in Australia.
Benefits of Engaging a Registered Migration Agent
Choosing a MARA-registered agent means:
Receiving up-to-date advice aligned with current migration laws
Professional management of your application from start to finish
Accurate preparation of application forms and supporting documents
Regular updates on the status of your application and any regulation changes
Confidence that you are pursuing a legitimate pathway to securing an Australian visa
