(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations amend the Immigration and Nationality (Fees) Regulations 2017 (S.I. 2017/515). In particular, the Regulations make provision in respect of the exchange rate which the Home Office is to apply when receiving payments in currencies other than sterling (regulation 5).
The remainder of the changes made by these Regulations are minor and technical in nature.
A full impact assessment estimating the effect that the Immigration and Nationality (Fees) Regulations 2017 would have on the costs of business and the voluntary sector was published with an explanatory memorandum alongside the Immigration and Nationality (Fees) Order 2016 (S.I. 2016/177, as amended by S.I. 2017/440) and was based upon the maxima specified in that Order. The impact assessment is available alongside that instrument at www.legislation.gov.uk. No further impact assessment has been produced for this instrument.
2014 c. 22. Treasury consent has been obtained in pursuance of section 69(1) of the Immigration Act 2014.
S.I. 2016/177; this Order was amended by S.I. 2017/440.
