Immigration Compliance Services

Maximize your immigration compliance. 

What’s the best way to solve your immigration compliance issues?  

Simple: Prevent them from happening in the first place. 

The problem is, we live in the real world—and moving talent across borders is anything but simple—especially now.  

And while immigration compliance is growing more and more vital to business operations worldwide, it’s challenging to avoid the wide variety of issues that can arise. Complex processes like corporate restructuring, large-scale projects, back-to-back rotational assignments and travel bans can be especially challenging.  

Successfully navigating immigration compliance can mean the difference between growing your business or obstructing your goals. Fragomen strategically partners with you to provide advisory and immigration compliance services that help you: 

    • Manage your most complicated immigration projects and scenarios 
    • Craft compliance solutions that avoid pitfalls before they happen 
    • Help correct issues if they do occur 

In short, we can help you maximize your company's immigration compliance.  

Here’s how: 

Prevent and correct immigration compliance issues—before they become a problem

Early detection and swift correction of compliance oversights is crucial to avoiding negative consequences.  

 

Internal Immigration Audit and Training  

Through proactive internal audits, Fragomen helps to correct errors before they become problems. We conduct compliance and file reviews and can help you implement process improvements. We can also raise your compliance profile by training your mobility staff to spot and address potential issues up front. 

 

Government Immigration Audit or Investigation Assistance 

In the current political environment, government immigration audits and investigations are increasing in many countries worldwide. Fragomen’s Government Strategies and Compliance team has been guiding and representing organizations during government site visits, external audits and investigations for decades. We know how to demonstrate that immigration practices are compliant and properly documented. 

Strategic immigration compliance partnering and advice for all your complex projects

When the movement or acquisition of talent is tied into large corporate projects, you face a unique set of immigration compliance challenges. Working with an experienced advisor up front can help streamline the process and avoid compliance roadblocks along the way.  

 

M&As and Corporate Restructuring 

Mergers and acquisitions (M&A), divestures and other types of corporate restructuring activities are typically focused on the “big-picture” and on mitigating financial risks—and the critical area of immigration compliance is often overlooked. If you’re not considering the immigration impacts of a transaction, it can lead to serious repercussions for employees and the success of the merger. Fragomen can partner with you to provide strategic guidance and support on the immigration aspects of your corporate activities.  

 

Project Support 

Large scale projects around the world often require the simultaneous movement of dozens to hundreds of employees. They face different challenges based on how many employees are moving, their roles and credentials, and the countries involved. 

We can help you: 

    • Execute project needs through compliant—yet practical—immigration solutions 
    • Maintain compliance with local immigration-related processes and regulations 
    • Build custom action plans in line with your priorities and targets, helping you to stay on track and achieve your goals 

 

Rotational and Back-to-Back Assignments 

The use of short-term assignments—such as rotational and multiple or back-to-back assignments helps to control costs and build your global operations. However, the rapid deployment of employees to foreign countries can also lead to a host of immigration compliance concerns.  

We help hundreds of companies around the world: 

    • Manage the immigration compliance risks of short-term cross-border travel and understand its intricacies and challenges 
    • Design proactive strategies for avoiding common pitfalls  
    • Incorporate immigration compliance into your overall plan 

Navigate a changing world

EU Integrated Compliance and Advisory Services 

We provide compliant yet pragmatic advice on many issues impacting mobility in the EU, including integrated work readiness services such as the requirements associated with the EU Posted Workers Directive and international social security certificates of coverage.
