Why you should check the fee
Visa fees are not fixed amounts; they can be revised. If a change takes effect between the time you prepare your application and the time you actually pay, the amount may differ from what you expected, so it is safest to check the figure again immediately before payment.
Reference amounts as of September 2026
£20Electronic Travel Authorisation application fee
£135Standard fee for a 6-month visitor visa
These amounts are for reference only and may differ depending on the application route and the type of visa.
Check before you pay
- That you are applying for the correct type of visa
- That you have selected a validity period suited to your intended length of stay
- That fees are generally non-refundable once an application has been submitted
Please note
If you apply through a third-party website, a separate service charge may be added on top of the official fee. Please check the itemised amounts on the payment screen.
