Coordinated relocation for principals and their families.

Ovata Group supports families, executives and investors relocating across borders. Immigration advice, eligibility assessments and visa/residency applications are prepared and lodged by licensed migration lawyers and registered advisers in our professional network in each jurisdiction. Ovata coordinates everything around the move — the corporate, banking, tax and settlement workstreams that turn a residency pathway into a working cross-border structure.

The licensed network

What our professional network delivers.

Regulated immigration work sits with licensed practitioners in each jurisdiction — not with Ovata.

  • Eligibility and strategy advice — the licensed assessment of which pathways fit the principal's circumstances.
  • Application preparation and lodgement — documentation, source-of-wealth, and filing with the immigration authority.
  • Representation with immigration authorities — including any hearings, requests for further information and post-lodgement engagement.
  • Appeals and complex casework — where a matter turns on discretionary or contested questions.
Ovata-branded services

What Ovata delivers around the move.

The corporate, tax and settlement workstreams that turn a residency pathway into a working cross-border structure.

01

Relocation Programme Coordination

Single point of contact across jurisdictions, advisers and timelines — the case manager keeping the programme on track through every workstream.

02

Corporate Structuring & Business Establishment

Incorporations, sponsoring-entity setup and market entry, linking directly to Ovata's core corporate advisory pillars where the mandate requires it.

03

Tax Residency & Exit Planning Coordination

Delivered with licensed tax advisers in each jurisdiction — Ovata coordinates the workstream; regulated tax advice is provided by qualified counsel.

04

Real Estate & Investment Facilitation

Introductions to agents and managers in-market. Ovata is not a real-estate agent or licensed financial adviser and does not provide financial product advice.

05

Document Logistics

Collection, certification, apostille and certified translation of the paperwork the licensed application requires. Clerical support around the licensed workstream.

06

Settlement Services

Introductions to housing, schooling, healthcare and insurance providers in the destination jurisdiction — the practical work of arrival.

07

Ongoing Residency Compliance Calendar

Administrative reminders for renewals, minimum-stay obligations and reporting deadlines — so the residency stays valid once granted.

Compliance posture

How the roles are drawn.

A short set of ground rules that apply to every residency and relocation mandate at Ovata Group.

  • Ovata does not provide immigration, legal, tax or financial product advice. Regulated advice within every mandate is contracted with, and delivered by, the licensed practitioner responsible for it.
  • Australia and New Zealand. All immigration advice, eligibility assessments and application work in Australia and New Zealand are provided by Australian immigration lawyers or registered migration agents, and New Zealand IAA-licensed immigration advisers or lawyers, respectively.
  • Malaysia. MM2H applications are lodged with licensed MM2H providers in Malaysia under their responsibility and regulatory standing.
  • Panama. Applications are filed by licensed Panamanian attorneys, as required under Panamanian law.
  • Investor-visa programmes. Where a residency pathway (for example the HK CIES or NZ AIP) involves an investment, Ovata describes the programme parameters but does not promote or recommend specific investment products, funds or portfolios. Investment decisions sit with licensed managers or advisers appointed by the client.
  • Fees. Ovata's fees are not structured as contingent on a visa or residency outcome. Coordination and support fees are separate from, and additional to, the fees of the licensed practitioners engaged on the file.
How we engage

Every mandate follows a defined path.

You will always know what is being done, who is acting for you, and under what authority.

Book a discovery consultation
  1. 01

    Discovery consultation

    A confidential discussion — in person or by conference call — to understand your objectives and undertake a situational analysis of the jurisdictions and issues involved. There is no obligation at this stage.

  2. 02

    Engagement brief

    Ovata prepares a written brief setting out our understanding of your position, the matters identified and the proposed workstreams. We convene a follow-up meeting, bringing in the relevant Ovata specialists and, where the brief requires, licensed migration partners from our professional network.

  3. 03

    Scope and agreement — within five business days

    Within five business days of the follow-up meeting, the scope is settled and engagement documents are issued. You may engage Ovata, the licensed migration practitioner directly, or both — so that immigration advice is always provided by, and contracted directly with, the professional licensed to give it.

  4. 04

    Execution

    Ovata coordinates the workstream through to residency grant and settled arrival. Licensed migration counsel handles the application; Ovata handles everything else around the move.

Ovata Group does not provide immigration advice or immigration assistance within the meaning of the Migration Act 1958 (Cth), the Immigration Advisers Licensing Act 2007 (NZ) or equivalent legislation in any other jurisdiction. Where a mandate includes a residency or visa element, that element is scoped with, and contracted directly to, the licensed practitioner responsible for it.
