New campaign urges people to check their immigration adviser is regulated
The Immigration Advice Authority (IAA) has launched a new national campaign to protect advice seekers from unregulated and potentially harmful immigration advisers.
Many people seeking immigration advice, particularly in urgent or stressful situations, are unaware that advisers must be properly regulated. This can leave them vulnerable to scams, poor-quality advice, financial loss, and serious damage to their immigration outcomes.
The campaign highlights a simple but important message: Before you trust them, check them.
Before trusting someone with your case, you can use the IAA’s free online Adviser Register to check whether they are authorised to provide immigration advice.
The campaign is being run across social media, digital platforms and outdoor advertising to reach people at the point they are most likely to seek help. Campaign materials are clear, accessible and available in multiple languages to support communities across the UK.
The IAA is the UK’s independent regulator of immigration advisers. It sets and enforces professional standards and takes action against those operating illegally or providing poor‑quality advice.
By encouraging people to check an adviser’s status, the campaign aims to help individuals make informed decisions and avoid costly mistakes.
