Consultation description

The implementation of the Nationality and Borders Act 2022 will introduce new forms of appeal routes in the Immigration and Asylum Chambers of the First-tier and Upper Tribunal.

To support these new changes, this consultation proposes making 2 minor reforms to the tribunal fees structure that operates in the IAC. These changes are to:

  • introduce a fee exemption for the accelerated detained appeals (ADA) process; and
  • introduce identical appeal fees in the Upper Tribunal as in the First-tier Tribunal, so that the same fee is payable by those who have an expedited appeal in the Upper Tribunal

The consultation also considers what fees should be payable for age assessment appeals. It proposes that the fees that are currently payable for immigration and asylum matters in the First-tier Tribunal should also apply to this new appeal type.
