Methodology

Sources

Fees shown on this site come from official authority fee pages and published PDFs only. We do not use estimates from third parties, forums or advertisements.

Package prices and itemised fees

Where an authority publishes a package price instead of an itemised schedule, the tool shows the package, labelled “package”, together with what it includes. Itemised fees for that package are available from the authority. A package total is never a sum of itemised fees.

Source and date

Each fee shows its source and the date it was last verified. Fees that have not been verified for 90 days show “needs re-check”.

Items quoted on request

Items that an authority quotes on request are excluded from totals. Where this applies, the total is labelled “excluding”.

Ordering and independence

The order of results never depends on payment. There are no sponsored rows.

How referral fees are earned

A licensed setup firm may pay a fee when a visitor who consented to an introduction becomes its client. This does not change the order of results or the content shown.

Corrections

If you believe a fee is wrong or out of date, see the corrections page to request a correction.

Corporate tax

Corporate tax status is not computed by this tool. Consult a tax adviser.
