Pros & cons

Expert Education and Visa Services
✓ What students love
  • ✓15+ years of operation providing stable institutional knowledge of visa regulations
  • ✓ICEF attendance signals a commitment to ethical recruitment standards
  • ✓Transparent documentation checklists help students understand what is required at each stage
  • ✓Located centrally in Kathmandu with convenient access
✗ Drawbacks
  • ✗Does not cover European or Asian destinations
  • ✗No published success rate data for visa or placement outcomes
  • ✗Limited digital presence
Mates International Kathmandu
✓ What students love
  • ✓MARA-registered Brisbane head office — Australian visa advice is legally regulated under the Migration Act
  • ✓Nepal counsellors hold QEAC (PIER) and ITAC (ICEF) dual certification
  • ✓Direct Brisbane continuity — not a referral to a third party once students land in Australia
  • ✓100,000+ clients served across the global network
  • ✓Partnership with 50+ Australian colleges and universities
  • ✓Government of Nepal authorised consultancy
✗ Drawbacks
  • ✗Australia-only focus — students interested in Canada, UK, or USA should use a different agency
  • ✗Mates Edu Nepal (matesedu.com) is a separate Nepal-founded entity with the same branding; confirm you are engaging the Brisbane-headquartered Mates International (matesinternational.com) for MARA registration coverage
  • ✗Pokhara office has fewer counsellors than Kathmandu — complex visa cases are best handled at the Kathmandu location
