This is a reminder that certain fees are increased on 01/04/2025 by regulation 18A of the Fees Regulations 2012.
Notes:
- Regulation 18A of the Fees Regulations 2012 sets out that, if there is a relevant increase in the consumer price index (CPI), then certain fees are increased on 1 April (each year from 01/04/2025 onwards).
- For more information about the above annual fee increases, please view this MHCLG guidance (link).
- Note: As the above annual fee increases do not directly amend the Fees Regulations 2012, they are not incorporated into the "Fees Regulations 2012 (Consolidated)" document.
- Note: Regulation 18A of the Fees Regulations 2012 was inserted by SI 2023 No. 1197 (note: for more information, please view this post).
- Note: The above annual fee increases on 01/04/2025 are separate from the fee increases made by SI 2025 No. 342 on 01/04/2025 (note: for more information about the latter, please view this post). The annual fee increases on 01/04/2025 do not apply to those fees that are amended by SI 2025 No. 342 on 01/04/2025 (due to the transitional provision set out by regulation 6 of the latter SI).
