Legendary helpful member
I’ve just caught sight of this and thought it might be wise to share. It will affect those who have not yet applied for NLV, but are getting ready to do so.
IMPORTANT. CHANGES TO NON-LUCRATIVE VISA CHARGES.
Following the award of a visa processing outsourcing contract to BLS International Ltd by the Spanish government, there are changes to the visa application fees immediately at the Consulates in London, Manchester and Edinburgh. There is a new additional BLS service charge of £14.55 taking the total amount needed to be paid IN CASH per applicant to £571.45.
This sum is made up from the visa fee of £525.45, new BLS fee of £14.55, £4.55 per full photocopy of passport, courier charge £24.95 and £1.95 for SMS text message.
