In a city full of agents, ask for the licence number

Canadian files from our Sarkhej–Gandhinagar Highway office are prepared under a federal licence listed on a public register. Anyone can check it, including you, before you pay anybody anything.

The short answer

The Visa Tales works from 902, Elite Business Hub, beside Audi, Sarkhej–Gandhinagar Highway, open Mon–Fri, 11:00 am – 6:00 pm. Canadian applications are prepared and filed under RCIC licence R710507, a federal Canadian licence rather than a local registration, and one you can look up on the CICC public register in about a minute. Ahmedabad is also where Gujarat gives biometrics, so for most applicants in the state the file and the appointment end up in the same city.

Finding it

Elite Business Hub sits on the Sarkhej–Gandhinagar Highway beside the Audi showroom. The practice is on the ninth floor, at 902.

Opened in 2026 as the firm’s second Gujarat office. The first is in Bhavnagar, at Bhavnagar’s Hill Drive, if that is nearer to you.

Gujarat gives its biometrics here

A Canadian temporary resident application needs biometrics, meaning fingerprints and a photograph, given in person at a Visa Application Centre. Gujarat’s is in Ahmedabad. So whether you file from Rajkot, Surat, Bhavnagar or Gandhinagar, one trip to this city is already part of the process.

That is a scheduling fact rather than a sales pitch: the appointment comes after the application is submitted and the letter asking for it arrives, so it is not a reason to come in early. Book it through VFS Global’s own site, never through anyone who offers to sell you a slot.

What is handled from this office

Study permits and admissionsCanada under the RCIC licence, plus the UK, US and Australia. Programme choice and the funding story, before the deposit rather than after.Visitor visasCanada, Dubai and Turkey as full files. Parents and spouses visiting family already abroad is most of this work.Work permitsPost-graduation permits, spousal open work permits, and employer-supported files.Refusals and reapplicationsA read of the officer’s notes, which finding is answerable, and whether refiling now is worth the fee.

The RCIC licence is Canadian and covers Canadian files. Everything else is handled by the firm under its own name, to the same document standard, with no claim to a licence that does not apply.

One question worth asking anyone

Ahmedabad does not lack immigration offices. What it lacks is a habit of checking them. Canadian law is unusually clear on this: only a lawyer, a Quebec notary, or a Regulated Canadian Immigration Consultant may represent you before IRCC, and every consultant’s licence is published on a register anyone can search.

Looking for the passport office instead?

Ahmedabad has one of Gujarat’s two Regional Passport Offices, and it issues Indian passports, which is a different thing from a visa to another country, and the two get confused constantly. If that is what brought you here, the directory is the faster answer.

Questions people in Ahmedabad ask

Where is your Ahmedabad office?

902, Elite Business Hub, beside Audi, Sarkhej–Gandhinagar Highway, Ahmedabad, Gujarat 380061. It is on the ninth floor, beside the Audi showroom on the Sarkhej–Gandhinagar Highway, and it is open Mon–Fri, 11:00 am – 6:00 pm.

Do I have to come to Ahmedabad for biometrics?

For a Canadian application, biometrics are given in person at a Visa Application Centre, and Gujarat’s is in Ahmedabad. So most applicants in the state make one trip here regardless of who prepares their file, which is a practical reason to have the consultation in the same city rather than a reason to choose us.

How is this different from the agents on SG Highway?

One checkable thing: Canadian files here are handled under RCIC licence R710507, a federal Canadian licence listed on the College of Immigration and Citizenship Consultants public register. An unlicensed agent cannot represent you before IRCC at all, has no regulator, and faces no consequence if your file fails. Ask anyone you are considering for their licence number, then look it up, including us.

Can you handle my file if I live outside Ahmedabad?

Yes, and most clients do. The work is document-led and runs over WhatsApp and email; the firm has handled 118+ cases for clients in 40+ countries. There is also a second Gujarat office in Bhavnagar if that is closer.

Is the Ahmedabad passport office the same thing as a visa centre?

No, and they are three separate places people mix up. The Regional Passport Office issues your Indian passport. A Visa Application Centre takes biometrics for another country’s visa. And a consultant prepares the application itself. Ahmedabad has all three, which is why the confusion starts here.

Come in with the file, or send it before you travel.

A licensed read of where you stand and a plain answer if the route is not realistic yet. Most of the work happens over WhatsApp, and the office is for the conversation that is worth having in person.

Every Canadian file is reviewed by Jay Sharma, licensed to represent you before IRCC as RCIC R710507 and verifiable on the CICC public register. That is the difference between advice and representation.
