About Navorn
Licensed advice, from people who've made the journey too.
Navorn is a licensed New Zealand immigration and education consultancy, advising on work, residence, student and visitor visas since 2015. We've helped more than 9,000+ people move, work and study abroad, from offices in Auckland and Ahmedabad.
Where the name comes from
Navigate. Orient. Navorn.
The name comes from NAVigate and ORieNt - steering immigration, as the tagline puts it. Finding a way through a visa process that's rarely straightforward, then getting oriented once you're through it.
We started Navorn because our own team had already been through that process - the uncertainty, the paperwork, waiting to hear whether a decision was final. That's shaped how we've worked since 2015: advice that's accurate and built around your situation, not run off a template.
We specialise in New Zealand immigration and study options, working with individuals, employers and investors through the pre- and post-lodgement visa process - making sure an application is complete before it's filed, then tracking it and handling any further documentation Immigration New Zealand asks for afterwards.

How we work
Four things that don't change from case to case.
Licensed, not just experienced
Every piece of advice comes from a Licensed Immigration Adviser - trained and authorised to interpret immigration law, not general guidance dressed up as advice.
Support before and after lodgement
We work with you to get an application right before it's filed, then stay on it afterwards - tracking its status and handling any further documentation Immigration New Zealand asks for.
Tailored to your situation
Visa outcomes depend on details specific to you. We build a plan around your circumstances rather than running everyone through the same checklist.
Two offices, one team
With a base in both Auckland and Ahmedabad, distance from one office rarely means distance from an answer.
Licensed, not just experienced
Check any adviser's licence before you engage them.
Charging a fee for immigration advice on New Zealand visas is a regulated activity: anyone doing it must be licensed by the Immigration Advisers Authority (IAA), or work under someone who is. Advisers working with clients in Australia are also registered with the Migration Agents Registration Authority (MARA).
Both bodies keep public registers, so you can check a licence yourself before committing to work with someone - immigration advice is worth that five minutes.

Not sure which visa fits your situation?
A free 15-minute consult with a licensed adviser is usually enough to tell you whether you have a viable pathway - and what it would take.
