Immigration

Innovative, globally coordinated immigration services.

A global economy requires a global business strategy, which invariably involves the need to move your most important asset -- your people -- fluidly and expeditiously across borders.

But today there’s much more to a global mobility strategy than securing work visas and residency permits, and assuring unimpeded business travel -- as critical as those functions are. Business planning also requires you to take a strategic approach to immigration, which means having your finger on the pulse of pending immigration changes across multiple countries and regions -- and often having your voice heard by policymakers.

As government tax and immigration departments increasingly share information about multinationals, it makes sense to work with a legal services provider with a marquee brand, experience working with government entities  know-how, and a global reach who can provide effective, integrated immigration and tax advice.

A holistic approach to immigration matters

PwC’s immigration lawyers work closely with colleagues in Employment Law, Human Resources and Global Tax Services to deliver legal advice with a strategic, holistic business focus. Our staff of more than 600 immigration specialists -- arrayed across a network of 126 countries -- have the commercial acumen, the local contacts, and the wealth of experience to help you gain value from your immigration and mobility strategy.
