Migration Agents Registration Authority
The Migration Agents Registration Authority (MARA) is a government body operating under the Department of Home Affairs in Australia. Its primary role is to regulate the migration advice profession, ensuring that migration agents operate with integrity and competence. Agents registered with MARA must adhere to a strict Code of Conduct, providing reliable and informed advice to clients navigating the complex pathways of immigration to Australia. Additionally, MARA handles complaints against agents, safeguarding the public’s interests. By maintaining a transparent and robust regulatory environment, MARA enhances the reliability of immigration assistance services across the nation, reinforcing Australia’s commitment to a fair and orderly immigration process. Learn more about this organisation via www.mara.gov.au
All our migration agents are registered with MARA and authorised to provide visa and citizenship services to individuals and businesses. You can verify our migration agents’ registration via https://portal.mara.gov.au/search-the-register-of-migration-agents/
