(inside and outside of the United Kingdom)
Please note fees do not include VAT and for Home Office fees please refer to the UKVI website as they change every year.

Fees

At Arrow Legal we usually charged fixed rates for our immigration and wills cases.  Costs do of course vary depending on the complexity of the case.  We do not charge for consultations, aside to for business visas and you are ever under any obligation to instruct us. 

Upon instructing us, you will pay a deposit to have ‘a retainer’, sign a contract between us and you.If the case is ongoing,we will issue you with interim bills to pay towards your fixed fee costs. In straightforward cases however, we will submit the application and/or conclude your case, this is when the balance will become due.

On some occasions you will be charged an hourly basis. All disbursements are in addition to the fixed fee. If you are subject to VAT, this will be added to the costs.  At present we are not registered to pay VAT.

Disbursements are costs related to your matter that are payable to third parties, such as visa fees, interpreters, translations, country expert reports, medical reports and of course the Home Office fee and the NHS surcharge, as applicable. We will let you know as soon as possible if any third-partyinstruction and input are necessary.

You are not liable for VAT if you have no permission to live in the UK, if you are a visitor or if you are making an application from abroad for an entry clearance. Therefore, our prices sometimes include VAT and sometimes do not, depending on your personal circumstances and the nature of the application. We will confirm to you whether VAT (at a rate of 20%) is payable when we have been instructed.
