Business Visa Services and Technology
Conquer business visa compliance.
It’s just a quick trip—isn’t it?
For some time now, many companies have started to favor short term business travel for their mobile workforces over more traditional (and more expensive) longer-term assignments.
While this strategy can help maintain competitiveness in the global marketplace, don’t be fooled—short-term assignments carry just as many risks as their long-term counterparts. All too often, business travelers mistakenly assume that they do not require work permits just because of the brevity of their trip or they simply fall under the radar of their organization’s mobility program.
For many companies, short term business travel is in fact the number one risk to your immigration compliance today. Fragomen provides the full range of business visa services to help our clients conquer business visa compliance—and avoid costly mistakes.
Here’s how:
Experienced guidance meets disruptive technology.
