Meet the Founder

Karina Chuquimia is an international lawyer dual-qualified in Argentina and Brazil, founder of Immigration Consulting Brazil, Immigration Consulting Argentina and IntGrows.

Building Across Borders

Born in Argentina, Karina began her legal career there from the start 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 working at the Rio 2016 Olympics and defined her approach to large-scale international mobility.

In 2016, she founded Immigration Consulting in 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, with NomadApp Visa as its proprietary AI-powered platform. 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 themselves in Brazil, Argentina and Latam.

Recognition

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

Leadership & Expertise

Karina holds a Bachelor of Laws from the University of Buenos Aires with specialization in Labor Law — the foundation of her career in international and corporate immigration. Building on that, she pursued advanced training across three disciplines: 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 certification 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 worldwide.

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 important decisions a person or company will ever make. It involves legal complexity, personal stakes and processes that can feel overwhelming , especially in a country as vibrant and bureaucratically intricate as Brazil, Argwntina & Latam.

We know this because we lived it. Founded in Brazil in 2016, Immigration Consulting was built by an immigrant, for people and companies who dare to cross borders. Ten years later, we have served 1,000+ clients from 20+ countries, expanded across Brazil, Argentina and Uruguay, and built the first AI-powered visa platform in Latin America — NomadApp Visa.

We take the time to understand every client’s story, goals and timeline, whether you are an individual relocating to Brazil, a founder expanding into Latam, or a company managing a full corporate mobility program. We handle the entire process with precision, transparency and genuine care, explaining every step along the way so no one ever feels lost.

Behind every visa and every relocation there is a real decision that matters. We treat it that way, always.

We speak your language — literally. Our multicultural team works in English, Spanish, Portuguese and French, because we believe no one should navigate a life-changing process without fully understanding every step.

We combine a decade of legal expertise with cutting-edge technology to deliver immigration solutions that are fast, fully compliant and genuinely human. From individual visas to full corporate mobility programs, we handle the entire process with precision and care — so our clients can focus on what brought them here in the first place.

We don’t just process visas. We open doors.

That is why IC
