Founded in 2003, Premier started as a small business offering professional and high quality immigration, business set-up and tax advice to business owners by understanding both their business and personal goals and tailoring our service delivery to achieve them. 

Premier’s team has always been led by experienced, qualified professionals who have brought with them knowledge and expertise from working in some of the biggest professional firms assisting multinational clients, with the aim of bringing VIP level, personalised services to every client.

As our client base grew, we recognised the importance of a client driven expansion of our service offerings, so we developed a multifaceted approach that could facilitate success and security across the international market.

With continued growth and expansion, Premier now has offices in Europe, the Middle East and Far East, helping our clients to grow their businesses and mitigate risks through achieving global mobility.

Offering a wide range of services across multiple markets, with an in-depth, holistic approach, allows us to build a comprehensive plan where all services complement each other and work in harmony to maximise our clients’ potential.

I have a dream to settle abroad. I have checked many online consultants but I was not satisfied by their guidelines. Some of my friends told me about Premier Consultancy for my immigration abroad.
Their input was all I wanted to know. They guided me well and specially they listened to me about where I needed to be going. I found them of great support and helpful. They are fully professional people of commitment which I like very much. I fully recommend Premier Consultancy for all your immigration needs and consultation with two thumbs up. Keep up the good work team Premier Consultancy. Wish you all the best ahead.
