LPA Registration Fees
-
Standard Fee: £82 per LPA. Since there are two types of LPAs—Property and Financial Affairs and Health and Welfare—registering both would amount to £164.
-
Reduced Fee (Remission): If the donor (the person making the LPA) has a gross annual income below £12,000, they may qualify for a 50% fee reduction, bringing the cost down to £41 per LPA.
-
Fee Exemption: Donors receiving certain means-tested benefits—such as Income Support, Universal Credit, or Housing Benefit—may be eligible for a full exemption from the registration fee.
To apply for a fee reduction or exemption, you’ll need to complete and submit the LPA120 form along with supporting evidence of income or benefits.
🧾 Additional Fees
-
Reapplication Fee: If your application contains errors and needs to be resubmitted, a reduced fee of £41 is charged for the reapplication.
-
Certified Copies: Obtaining an official copy of a registered LPA costs £35.
