Court Fees Going Up by 10% in May 2024

Posted on April 26th, 2024

Possession Claims will increase from £355.00 to £391.00.

Issuing a Warrant of Possession (the Bailiff application fee) will increase from £130.00 to £143.00.

These increases come after a consultation period last year, it’s the first court fee rise since September 2021.

Fees are set to rise every 2 years.

There is hope that the extra revenue will assist the courts in improving court processing times.
