Karina Chuquimia

Meet the Founder

Karina Chuquimia is an international lawyer dual-qualified in Argentina and Brazil, and one of the leading practitioners in corporate immigration and talent mobility in Latin America.

Born in Argentina, she began her legal career from the first year of her law degree. After relocating to Brazil, she joined one of the country’s top law firms in the corporate immigration department — an experience that included managing large-scale international mobility for the Rio 2016 Olympics and shaped her operational approach to complex, high-volume immigration programs.

In 2016, she founded Immigration Consulting Brazil — today an AI-first global mobility company serving clients from 30+ countries, specializing in corporate immigration, expat programs, talent mobility, and digital nomad visas in Brazil. The firm’s proprietary platform, NomadApp Visa, brings AI-powered processing to immigration workflows. She later expanded the model to Argentina with Immigration Consulting Argentina, now extending its services to Uruguay in 2026. To complete the ecosystem, she co-founded IntGrows, a Softlanding company helping global businesses and entrepreneurs establish legal and operational presence in Brazil, Argentina, and across LATAM.

In 2025, Immigration Consulting was selected as one of the Top 50 Breakout Startups at Web Summit Rio — out of nearly 1,400 companies.

Karina holds a Bachelor of Laws from the University of Buenos Aires with specialization in Labor Law, an MBA in People Management & Leadership from UFRJ, a certification in International Human Resources Management from Coventry University, and a Master XPAT in Global Mobility — a specialized credential reserved for senior professionals in the corporate relocation industry.

She is an appointed member of the Commission of Immigration Law and International Labor Mobility of the OAB Rio de Janeiro (2025–2027) and an active member of WERC (Worldwide ERC), the leading global association for talent mobility and corporate relocation professionals.

A frequent speaker at international events on corporate immigration, global mobility, and cross-border business in LATAM, she also mentors founders and professionals building international careers.

Her approach has remained consistent across every venture: high-tech, high-touch immigration and talent mobility — precision, speed, and the human intelligence that technology alone cannot replace.

OUR MISSION

To simplify immigration and global mobility across Brazil, Argentina and Latam, combining legal expertise, cutting-edge technology and a genuinely human approach. We move people and companies across borders with precision, speed and care.

OUR VISION

To lead the future of immigration in Latin America — building the region’s most innovative and trusted corporate mobility ecosystem, where technology and human touch are never in conflict, but always in partnership.

OUR VALUES

At Immigration Consulting, we believe that technology and humanity are not opposites, they are partners. We move fast and we act with precision, because our clients’ time and futures depend on it. We operate with full transparency and the highest standards of legal ethics, because trust is the foundation of everything we do. And above all, we never forget that behind every visa, every relocation and every corporate program, there are real people making life changing decisions. That human truth is what drives us, every case, every client, every day.

WHY IMMIGRATION CONSULTING?

Immigration is one of the most consequential decisions a person or company will make. It involves legal complexity, high personal or business stakes, and processes that can feel opaque — especially in markets as dynamic and procedurally demanding as Brazil, Argentina, and across LATAM.

IC Brasil was founded in Brazil in 2016 by an immigration lawyer who had lived that complexity firsthand. Nearly a decade later, the firm has served 1,000+ clients from 20+ countries, expanded operations across Brazil, Argentina, and Uruguay, and built NomadApp Visa — the first AI-powered visa platform in Latin America.

Whether you are an individual relocating to Brazil, a founder establishing operations in LATAM, or a corporation managing a full talent mobility program, we structure every process around your specific goals, timeline, and legal profile. No templates. No assumptions.

Our multicultural team works in English, Spanish, Portuguese, and French — because clarity at every step is not optional when the stakes are this high.

We combine a decade of legal expertise with proprietary technology to deliver immigration solutions that are fast, fully compliant, and built around the human decision behind every case. From individual visas to corporate immigration programs, our clients focus on what brought them here. We handle the rest.

Immigration Consulting Brasil & Argentina does not process paperwork. It builds pathways.
