Visas & residency
Right-to-return documentation, dual citizenship, work permits and long-stay visas filed correctly the first time.
Lead: Nana Adjei
We create awareness to stop illegal human smuggling from Africa into the EU.
With growing illegal immigration from the South to the West, there is increased risk of death due to lack of awareness from Afrika on the present risks of illegal immigration to EU. ARG hopes that an Africa wide homegrown programme targeting the youth with awareness on real situation in Europe will stop the urge to be smuggled out of Africa.

How a return actually gets planned
Three stages, run at your pace. Most clients go from first call to landing within nine to fourteen months.
01
Discovery call
A free 30 minutes on your timeline, budget, family needs and which country fits. You leave with a written summary either way.
02
Your written plan
We cost the move line by line — documents, housing, shipping, schools, setup fees — and name the advisor who owns each part.
03
Landing & first 90 days
Airport pickup, temporary accommodation, bank and SIM, school introductions, then check-ins until you are genuinely settled.
Advisors who live where you are going
Every client is matched with one lead advisor and a local specialist in the destination city.

What returning clients say
We had been talking about moving back for six years. Within four months of our first call we had a lease in East Legon, a school place for both children and our container cleared. The plan they wrote was the first honest cost of the move we had ever seen.
Yaa & Daniel OwusuReturned from London to Accra, 2024
I moved a consulting practice with me. They handled the company registration, the tax registration and introduced me to an accountant who actually understood my UK income. Nothing was left for me to chase.
Chidi OkonkwoReturned from Toronto to Lagos, 2023
What mattered most was that someone answered the phone in week three, when the shipping agent went quiet. Ama sorted it in a day. That is the part you cannot plan for, and they were ready for it.
