UK immigration fees
UK visa fees and charges are set to rise in 2023. The revenue helps fund the Home Office and NHS but there are complaints that rates are already too high.

The Foreign National Offenders Bill 2019-20 was announced in the Queen’s Speech on 14 October 2019. No date is yet available for second reading.
The Library will produce a briefing or material for the second reading debate and this page will be updated when it is made available.
The second reading paper may be updated as the Bill goes through Parliament; alternatively additional papers will be added to this page to reflect the Bill’s progress.
