ICEF Agency Status (IAS)

What is ICEF Agency Status?

ICEF Agency Status (IAS) is a global accreditation framework for international education agencies designed to bring clarity, transparency, and professional standards to international student recruitment. It gives institutions, partners, families, and students an independent way to verify who an agency is and whether it meets basic professional requirements to operate in international recruitment services.

What Does ICEF Verify with IAS?

Through the accreditation process, ICEF focuses on eligibility and transparency (not on agency size or commercial outcomes). As part of the IAS review, ICEF verifies:

Legal identity and ownership of the agency
Institutional references from education providers
Acceptance of the ICEF Agency Code of Conduct
The agency’s public presence and digital footprint
Authenticity of submitted information through structured identity checks
Accreditation is granted annually and remains subject to review.
