International student recruitment · Est. 2022
The EU entity behind South Asian student recruitment.
Why institutions work with us
One counterparty in the EU. Three recruitment markets on the ground.
Goabroad OÜ signs and holds recruitment agreements on behalf of partner institutions across Europe. Your institution deals with one Estonian entity — with a valid EU VAT number, a registered address, and accountability at every step. Recruitment happens in Bangladesh, Nepal and India, where we have our own counsellors on the ground.
Our proposition
Ambition to enrolment — with accountability at every step.
EU Contracting
One agreement. One EU entity. Familiar paperwork.
Agreements, invoicing and commission flow through Goabroad OÜ — registered in Estonia with EU VAT number EE102646375. Your legal and finance teams deal with a single counterparty operating under EU law.
Own Teams
Staff, not sub-agents. Accountability, not referrals.
Around 50 people employed across Dhaka, Kathmandu and India. Counselling is done by our own team — not a network of third-party agents working on commission with no oversight.
Screening
Filtered before it reaches you.
Academic fit, financial capacity and document integrity are checked before an application is submitted. You receive qualified applicants — not raw leads that your admissions team must re-evaluate from scratch.
What we handle
The work between an offer letter and a student in your lecture hall.
Everything from counselling and document review to visa support and pre-departure — handled by our in-market teams so you can focus on teaching.
Counselling & course matching
Our counsellors assess each student's academic profile and career goals, then match them to programmes and institutions where they are a realistic fit.
Document & credential review
Transcripts, language certificates, and supporting documents are reviewed for completeness, accuracy and authenticity before submission.
Application management
We manage the full application workflow — from online portals to paper submissions — tracking deadlines and chasing decisions on your behalf.
Interview preparation
Where institutions require student interviews, we prepare applicants with mock sessions and briefings on what to expect.
Visa & embassy support
Our teams guide students through visa documentation, financial proofs, and embassy appointments — reducing drop-off at the most critical stage.
Accommodation & pre-departure
From accommodation options to pre-departure briefings, we help students arrive ready — reducing the chance of no-shows or early withdrawals.
How a partnership runs
From first conversation to enrolled student.
A structured five-step process from introduction to enrolment — with one EU entity accountable throughout.

FAQ
Questions institutions ask before signing.
We recruit from Bangladesh, Nepal, and India. These are the three markets where we hold offices or in-market staff, relationships with feeder schools, and a track record of visa outcomes. We focus on depth in these markets rather than spreading thinly across many.
Every application goes through a three-point check before it reaches you: academic fit (does the student meet your stated entry requirements?), financial capacity (can they demonstrate funds for tuition and living costs?), and document integrity (are transcripts and certificates consistent and verifiable?). We attach a counsellor assessment note to each application.
Volumes depend on your programmes and the markets you open. We size expectations to what each destination and source market can realistically deliver, and share concrete pipeline figures during due diligence rather than headline projections. We will not oversell.
Yes. Offer-to-enrolment conversion is where most agencies lose students. We stay active through visa documentation, embassy appointments, pre-departure briefings, and accommodation guidance. Our interest is in the student arriving and enrolling — not just receiving an offer letter.
Not currently, and that is deliberate. Our model depends on having our own staff on the ground — not sub-agents. We prefer to deliver well in three markets than poorly in ten. If you have a specific market need, speak to us and we will be honest about what we can offer.
Goabroad OÜ is registered in the Estonian Business Register under code 16572448. The public register entry is freely searchable at ariregister.rik.ee. We also provide our VAT certificate, registry extract, and reference contacts as part of standard due diligence.
