What does this service include?
Family reunification is one of the most sensitive procedures — emotionally and administratively. Files must be flawless: the slightest inconsistency between individual applications and refusal is almost systematic. MigraGate assembles files in a coordinated way for the entire family unit. We handle visa applications for spouse, children and dependent parents, synchronising deadlines and consular appointments. Our support also covers blended families, adopted children and legal guardianship situations.
Procedure steps
Family situation assessment
Analysis of family ties, respective statuses and specific requirements of the destination.
Verification of the main applicant's status
The member living abroad must prove a valid residence permit, sufficient resources and adequate housing.
Assembly of individual files
Complete file for each family member: civil status documents, proof of relationship, certified translations.
Simultaneous submission and monitoring
Coordinated submission of applications to avoid delays and ensure file consistency.
Reunification and settlement
Visa granted — we assist with registration of family members on arrival.
Frequently asked questions
Who can apply for family reunification?
The main applicant must have been legally residing in the destination country for at least 1 year (varies by country) and have sufficient resources and housing.
Are children born abroad included?
Yes. We handle applications for children born in any country, with translation and apostille of birth certificates.
How long does the process take?
Between 20 and 45 days depending on the destination and the complexity of the family situation. A family of 4 requires longer coordination than an individual application.
Does the family have the right to work on arrival?
The spouse can generally work as soon as their residence permit is obtained. For minor children, school enrolment is facilitated by our local partners.
