Refund of Lasting Power of Attorney Fees

If you applied to register a power of attorney from 1 April 2013 to 31 March 2017, it is possible to claim back part of your application fee.

This applies to both Lasting Powers of Attorney and the former Enduring Powers of Attorney.

You can apply for the refund if you are the donor or an attorney.

The amount of the refund depends on when you paid the fees and interest will be paid on the amount due back to you.

Given the amount of potential refund, we would urge clients to apply for the refund direct, using the following link:

You must claim your refund by 31 January 2021.
