About Unique International
A Jalandhar consultancy that sends workers, students and families abroad the licensed way.
Iqbal Singh Dhuna, Managing Director
Who we are
Unique International is a Government of India, Ministry of External Affairs licensed recruiting agent (licence B-3508/PUN/PER/100/5/11512/2026) based at PPR Market, Jalandhar. We recruit Indian workers for employers in the Gulf, Europe and North America, and we prepare student, tourist, work permit and permanent residency visa applications for individuals from Jalandhar, Amritsar, Ludhiana, Hoshiarpur, Kapurthala and across Punjab.
I set up the company in 2009 because too many people from our region were going abroad through agents who could not be held to account. From the first Gulf mandates we have grown into a single office covering manpower supply, visitor and study visas, work permits and permanent residency. The approach has not changed: verify everything, quote realistic timelines, and keep the client informed at every stage.
