UK applications from South Africa
Start with the published fee breakdown for your case. Build a family estimate and see which costs still need a quote.
Review dates are shown for each published case. Confirm the itemised quote before paying. Reference and exclusions.
Published snapshot ready.
Each case uses the same published CSV as the website’s fee references: Move Up’s service fee before VAT, government charges in rand, the NHS surcharge, VAT, courier, bank charges and recorded rounding. Different applicants can have different case prices. A shared courier or family service arrangement may change your final quote.
Costs such as tests, appointment-centre options, translations and document orders need a separate check. A different grant length, fee waiver, inside-UK application or nationality route may require a case that is not yet priced in the CSV.
The exchange rates belong to the published cases. Adding an invented bank rate to those already-converted totals would count conversion twice. Ask for a refreshed quote if you need a different rate.

Government charges can change. Check the Home Office fee table and IHS charging guidance. A dated CSV row is not a guarantee that every figure is current.

Move Up guides
Government visa charges, the Immigration Health Surcharge where applicable, service fees and payment charges are separate parts of a budget. The route and people applying determine which items apply.
Visa charges, the Immigration Health Surcharge where applicable, professional fees and payment costs are different components. Compare the breakdown for each applicant rather than assuming one headline amount covers the household.
The fee panels use the site’s shared fee data. Rand estimates depend on the applied exchange rate and the listed components; they are not a promise of the rate a bank will settle at. Read the breakdown and its update information rather than adding two totals that include the same charge.
Consider each person applying, the route, permission period and any optional services. A headline visa fee may not be the whole budget. Discuss the relevant example with Move Up so that the proposed scope and separate charges are clear before payment.
Plan your costs
Government charges and professional help are separate costs. Start with the application that matches your circumstances.
