Cost of UK Settlement Visas in GBP

[thonglorjimmy]

I inderstand that the UK Government have set the statutory cost a Family (Settlement) visa at £1,533, according to the UKVI Website applicants in Thailand are charged USD 1,933 at todays rate, so about £1,595, just over £62 more than the Statutory rate.

 

I'm led to believe that, just to make it interesting, the price reverts to THB during the payment process.

 

I was wondering if any member has applied recently, paying with a UK Card and what were they actually charged in GBP, or even with a Thai card what were they charged in THB?

 

I'm aware that exchange rates fluctuate throughout the day.

Thanks in advance

@thonglorjimmyI think the numbers of those applying for settlement are probably down hence no replies, either that or they’ve got their visas, and moved on.

Thanks very much, so it looks to have cost you an extra £85 over the actual fee of £1,523 that was in place in March, excluding the Wise charge.
Not as big a hike as I expected, but big enough.
