PPC for visa consultants looks deceptively similar to any other lead-gen campaign on the surface — but destination-country structure, ad policy compliance and applicant qualification all work differently than a typical local-service campaign.
Structure Campaigns by Destination, Not One Generic Group
"Immigration consultant" as a single ad group mixes applicants interested in completely different countries and pathways. Structuring campaigns by destination country — and by visa category within each — lets you write specific ad copy and bid according to how competitive each segment actually is.
Ad Copy That Stays Within Platform Policy
Immigration advertising sits under closer platform scrutiny than most verticals. Avoid outcome language ("guaranteed approval," "100% success rate") entirely — not just because it's misleading, but because it's a common cause of ad disapproval and account-level policy flags.
Qualification Questions That Actually Filter
Destination country, intended timeline, and education/work background are the three questions that do the most filtering work in an immigration lead form — enough to separate serious applicants from "just looking" without making the form so long people abandon it.
Frequently Asked Questions
Should we run Google Ads, Meta Ads, or both?
Most consultancies see the best results running both — Google for actively-searching applicants, Meta for awareness and remarketing through a longer decision window.
Where can I see this applied to a specific market?
