The small print

  • Fees are indicative and all fees shown are exclusive of VAT unless stated. Our fees are quoted both inclusive and exclusive of VAT as not all clients are required to pay VAT. This depends on your immigration status, and we will advise you before any payment is agreed.
  • Some fees are marked N/A in the VAT-inclusive column where no individual making that specific application would be subject to VAT at 20%.
  • All costs exclude disbursements. In normal circumstances, disbursements usually cover the costs of photocopying, postal costs, travel, and interpreters for appointments or translations. These costs are normally under £100. We will try to agree disbursements in advance and provide an indication of what these are likely to be.
