Visas, costs, embassies, and scam alerts for 220 countries — open knowledge, not a visa agency.

It is a knowledge base, not a visa agency, and it does not give legal or immigration advice. Confirm current rules with official government sources or a qualified professional. Contact · Info@MigrantIQ.com
Right now the catalog covers 220 countries, 2,419 visa pathways, 21k+ embassy listings, 35,619 reviewed Q&A answers, and 1,323 law summaries, including 24 high-intent origin-to-destination corridors.
If you already know both ends of the trip, open a corridor guide such as Pakistan to Canada or India to the United States. From there, pick a route in the visa hub, check costs with the cost calculator and tax calculator, then confirm the mission in the embassy directory and scan scam alerts (1,322 active) before you pay anyone. Save progress in My Plan.
Only know the destination? Start from a country guide. Need take-home pay or settlement funds? Use proof of funds alongside the tax tools. Local rules live in the law summaries. Everything here is free to read; we are not a visa agency and we do not file applications or predict outcomes. Confirm fees and forms on the official government site.
