Business immigration pricing

Whenever possible, if we are able to predict the number of hours of work required to achieve the desired outcome for you, we can offer an agreed fee for our service.

If we are unable to offer an agreed fee, we will provide you with the estimate and we will regularly update you with regards to the costs, so you are never surprised with the final bill.

With this in mind, we can promise you that:

  1. We will be open and transparent about our fees and, where agreed fees are not applicable, we will ensure that you receive an estimate on the likely cost of your case at the very outset;
  2. If there is a need for us to incur any additional costs, we will contact you before we do and will explain our reasons why; and

We promise that any invoices that we send to you will be clear, set out a description of the work done and the amount charged.

The fees outlined below serve as a baseline and may be adjusted based on the complexity of your case. Please note that these fees do not include VAT or additional costs. Additional costs, known as disbursements, may include but are not limited to the following: application fees, Home Office fees, filing fees, bank charges or translation fees.

For detailed information on Home Office fees, please refer to their official website here.

We strive to provide clear and transparent pricing, ensuring you are fully informed of any potential costs from the outset. If you have any questions or need a customised quote, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Initial consultation

At IMD Corporate, we offer an in-depth initial consultation to provide you with the clarity and confidence needed to make the best decisions for your business immigration needs.

This up to one-hour videoconference with one of our experienced specialists in business immigration matters will cover your individual needs and requirements, exploring various visa options (advising you when and if they are required) and the best available routes to achieve your objectives.

During the consultation, we will explain the relevant laws, answer any questions you have, provide a clear understanding of the steps involved in the process, and advise you about your prospects for success with application.

By the end, you will have the information needed to make an informed decision about proceeding with your application. The consultation fee is £495 plus VAT, which will be deducted from our substantive fees if you instruct us to proceed with substantive application within three months (or another date agreed upon during the consultation).

The consultation will be held in English language. However, as a team of lawyers speaking various languages, we are well-equipped to communicate effectively with our clients and provide tailored support. We may be able to provide interpreting during the consultation if required which might be subject to our further offer.

In this section, we present examples of the business immigration applications we receive the most inquiries about, along with their associated pricing structures.

*The presented fees are per one application, and they do not include any objections or appeals, for which, if necessary, we will quote separately.

These fees are exclusive of VAT, and disbursements. We encourage anyone who wish to proceed with application to examine the Immigration Health Surcharge and the Home Office fees first. 

Our fee includes (this may slightly vary depending on the application):

  • Taking your instructions and reviewing documentation
  • Advising you about any additional documents required
  • Conducting a thorough assessment of your case to identify any potential issues from outset
  • In case of any potential issues identified, providing you with advice on how to deal with them
  • Advising you about prospects of success of your application
  • Providing ongoing advice during the whole process
  • Setting up a dedicated email address and UKVI account for you
  • Completing of the application form for you
  • Assisting with submission of the application to UKVI
  • Calculating and paying any applicable application fees, including Home Office fees and any additional processing costs
  • Making an appointment for you at a Visa Application Centre or Service Support Centre of your choice (when required)
  • Drafting a detailed letter of application setting out how you meet the Immigration Rules, policy, and any associated legal provisions (when required)
  • Preparing supporting documents (when required)
  • Uploading your supporting documents to the relevant UKVI partner agency (when required)
  • Discussing the visa appointment with your after attending to foresee any potential issues with processing of your application (when required)
  • Monitoring the status of the application and responding to any requests for additional information or documentation
  • Maintaining regular communication with the immigration authorities until decision is reached
  • Providing necessary advice once the decision is reached.

Unless an expedited option is available and chosen, matters usually take 3-6 weeks for visas and 8-10 weeks for sponsor licences from the submission of the application to a decision by the Home Office. This timeline assumes that the Home Office does not have any additional questions or requirements and that any on-site visits (for sponsor licence applications) proceed smoothly. Otherwise, the case may take longer to resolve.
