Your figure is ready
Enter your details to reveal your full breakdown.
Are you an employer or a job seeker?
Your breakdown is unlocked below. Borderless works with UK employers who sponsor overseas staff, so we can’t advise on an individual application — your details weren’t sent to us and nobody will be in touch.
Overseas fees are charged in foreign currencies so exact amounts vary; biometrics fees (≈£100–£200) may also apply. Estimate only, not legal advice.
