About Us

Habarnama is a hub of information on immigration, visas and legal residence in Europe, for Urdu, Hindi, Bengali, Filipino and English speakers.

Why do we run this website?

Every year thousands of Pakistani, Indian and Bangladeshi families decide to go to Europe — and for most of them the only source of information is an agent, a WhatsApp group, or years-old YouTube videos. The result is there for everyone to see: frauds worth hundreds of thousands of rupees, fake contracts, and sometimes the loss of lives.

Habarnama’s aim is simple: correct, detailed and honest information about every route — in Urdu, free. We do not arrange visas, we do not find jobs, and we have no connection with any agent. We only write down the information that already exists in official sources but often does not reach the ordinary person, because it is in English, Spanish, Italian or German.

Which countries do we write about?

  • Spain — work visa, study visa, Arraigo, Empadronamiento, family reunion, citizenship
  • Italy — the Decreto Flussi quota system, study visa, work and residence rules
  • Portugal — job seeker visa, work visa, study visa, the AIMA system
  • Germany — Chancenkarte, Ausbildung, Blue Card, study visa
  • United Kingdom — student visa, Skilled Worker, seasonal worker visa

Our principles

  • Legal routes only: We do not give guidance on any illegal method. Where dangerous routes are mentioned, the purpose is to warn and to point out the legal alternative.
  • No false promises: We never say “the visa is guaranteed”. The decision is always made by the government of the country concerned.
  • Against fraud: In every article we explain how agents rob people on that route — because paying money for information that is free is the biggest loss of all.
  • Official references: Wherever possible, we give the link to the official website of the country concerned, so that you can check for yourself.
  • Keeping up to date: Immigration laws change quickly. We try to update articles as the laws change.
