Association of Regulated Immigration Advisers
The Association of Regulated
Immigration Advisers is the professional Association for Regulated Immigration
Advisers in the United Kingdom. The Immigration and Asylum Act 1999 provides for
the Regulation of Immigration Advisers in the UK.
Since the Immigration Act 1971, and the British Nationality Act of 1981,
successive Governments in the UK have, for a number of reasons, introduced
further immigration laws and changed many aspects of existing British
Immigration Law and Rules. These, together with the introduction of further
British Law to cater for European Community Immigration imposed on the UK over
the years, has made the whole area of UK Immigration law extremely complex.
In view of this, Immigration Law is becoming more and more of a ‘specialist’
area of UK Law. This has resulted in many Solicitors turning their attention
away from Immigration towards other areas of domestic law. Immigration
organisations, advisers, consultants, and law centres have therefore steadily
found it necessary to provide an increasing amount of legal advice and services
in the area of Immigration.
It is important all people seeking Immigration advice and services both in and
outside the UK, for whatever reason, are reassured the advice and services they
receive is given in a competent, efficient and effective manner. The
introduction of Regulation in regard to UK Immigration and the Office of the
Immigration Services Commissioner has gone some way to achieve this. The
Association of Regulated Immigration Advisers will compliment this by providing
further reassurance that a professional association supports the Regulated UK
immigration advice and service providers, and those who are outside of UK
Regulation by the adoption of ‘Best Practice’ processes and procedures.
We hope the pages of this web site will provide some reassurance that our
members providing advice and consultancy immigration services in the UK, have
the support of this Association. It is also our primary aim to promote the image
and professionalism of Regulated immigration advisers in the UK, and in doing so
encourage the provision of more effective and efficient immigration services
generally.
When choosing immigration advice and service providers, it is therefore in your
interests to ensure the organisation you choose to provide the immigration
advice and services you require, is regulated and is one of our member
organisations. Look for our logo and ask!
