Estimate government application fees — and, for UK routes, the Immigration Health Surcharge — across common visa routes.
UK Skilled Worker visa
£3,924
£819 per person, entry clearance, stay of up to 3 years (from 8 Apr 2026)
Base fee: £819 · IHS: £3,105
£1,035/year standard rate. Assumed visa length defaults to 3 years to match the base-fee tier — pass visaYears to override. Applied to 1 applicant(s) over 3 year(s).
Base fees are per-person government charges, multiplied by (1 main applicant + dependants) at the same rate unless a dependantNote says otherwise. The Immigration Health Surcharge is only estimated for UK routes and only when a rate is officially published — we never invent an IHS figure for non-UK routes. totalKnown excludes anything listed in missingQuotes — do not treat it as a full cost-of-visa figure (biometrics, translations, legal fees, etc. are not modelled).
