Explanatory note
(This note is not part of the Order)
This Order amends the Consular Fees Order 1989 so as to expand the category of longer-term entry clearance (Fee 22(1)(a)(i)) to include settlement and marriage and increase the fee from £60 to £80. A separate category of longer-term entry clearance for other purposes is created (Fee 22(1)(a)(ii)) with a fee of £60. The fees for receiving an application for entry clearance in other categories of applicant (Fee 22(1)(b)) are varied by reducing the fee for single entry where the applicant is under 25 years of age from £20 to £10. In addition, the category of multiple entries is further sub-divided into multiple entry clearance valid for two years, with a fee reduced from £44 to £40, and a new multiple entry clearance valid for five years with a fee of £85.
