The Ministry of Justice (MoJ) has announced that, subject to parliamentary approval, 171 court and tribunal fees will increase from April 2025 to reflect Consumer Price Index (CPI) changes. The majority of fees will see a 3.2% increase, reflecting CPI changes between March 2023 and March 2024, while a small number of fees will increase by 13.5% to account for backdated inflation to March 2022. Additionally, 24 fees will be reduced to ensure they remain aligned with the latest estimate of their underlying cost. The Help with Fees remissions scheme remains available for those unable to afford court fees. These adjustments aim to support the efficient operation of His Majesty’s Courts and Tribunal Service (HMCTS). The announcement includes a full list of the proposed fee changes, with the intention that they apply as from 1 April 2025 for applications received by courts or tribunals on or after that date.
