Pricing Policy

Breytenbachs Immigration Consultants’ prices have been fixed for you, our client, in mind. Our fees are competitive and reasonable so that you can receive affordable and expert advice from our OISC-registered consultants.

Our fees are lower than you will find from many other London firms. Our central London location brings you convenience without the cost.

We will do everything possible to ensure the success of your application or case. We never file an immigration application unless we have given you a very clear assessment of the chances of success. If we do not believe your application is likely to be approved, we will inform you beforehand, so that you can decide whether you wish to proceed or not.

You can also be confident that you are getting friendly, professional advice from OISC-registered consultants. We will provide you with the very latest information and best advice for your unique circumstances.

Unlike many solicitors and visa agencies, that are only prepared to give general estimates, we provide you with a fixed quote for all work we will undertake on your behalf so that you can have peace of mind and plan accordingly.

In circumstances where we are not able to provide a fixed quote, we will inform you in advance.

Our consultation fees are deductible from your final fee if you instruct us within three months of your consultation.

No Visa, No Fee

At Breytenbachs, we pride ourselves on the quality of our work; our expert advisors will give you honest and constructive feedback on your case to ensure you are entirely satisfied before we begin your immigration journey together. To demonstrate the confidence we have in our abilities, we guarantee our work. This means that, in the unlikely event that your permit or visa is refused, we will refund our professional fees in line with our Terms, Conditions, and Exclusions. We ensure that every element of our work is of a highly professional standard, and we will not submit an application if we do not believe there is a high chance of success.

We call this our No Visa, No Fee Guarantee (NVNF Guarantee). 

There may be an occasion where our experienced advisors believe that an application carries a risk of refusal, should this be the case we will always make this clear to the client both verbally and in writing before we act. If, despite this warning, the client still wishes to move forward and submit the application, we will be unable to extend our NVNF Guarantee to cover their matter.

We do not work on credit 

Our NVNF Guarantee means that if a guaranteed application is refused, we will refund our professional fees. This does not mean that we work on credit. Full payment of our professional fees has to be made by a client before we submit any permit or visa application.

Consultation Fees 

Our consultations are preliminary meetings with a qualified advisor to discuss your matter and have a separate charge from our aforementioned professional fees. At this stage, the consultant will decide whether your application will be guaranteed or if it falls for the risk of refusal. Due to the nature of this meeting, our NVNF Guarantee does not extend to cover the consultation fee and is therefore not refundable under any circumstances.

Appeals, Administrative Reviews & other very complex cases 

Due to their nature, UK appeals, Administrative Reviews, and other complex level 3 matters always have an uncertain outcome. We, therefore, cannot extend our NVNF Guarantee to cover these matters.

Confirmation of the No Visa, No Fee guarantee

As previously mentioned, your immigration consultant will confirm if you qualify for the NVNF Guarantee. If you do not receive the NVNF Guarantee and believe that you are eligible, we welcome you to discuss this with your immigration consultant.

There are sometimes occasions where an NVNF Guarantee is provided, but at a later stage, new critical information arises, or we find that false information has been provided to us. Should this happen, we will be obligated to withdraw the NVNF Guarantee and will notify you of this change. We pride ourselves on our honesty and integrity and ask our clients to offer us the same when providing information and evidence.

Other Exclusions 

As mentioned above, some circumstances hold a risk of refusal, and, therefore, will not be covered by our NVNF Guarantee.

Please see below a non-exhaustive list of circumstances not covered by our NVNF Guarantee.

  • Where an applicant has contravened the Immigration Rules in any way or has overstayed the validity of their visa at any stage. This includes any infringement of national or international immigration laws, be it in the UK or another country.
  • Where false information or documentation has been provided, this includes misleading information, materials, and inaccurate personal identity information.
  • Where applicants have purposely omitted revealing relevant information to their immigration consultant, whether directly or indirectly, or should they have reasonably foreseen said information could negatively influence the outcome of their visa decision.
  • Where applicants fail to keep us informed of relevant changes to their circumstances, and such changes can influence the outcome of a visa decision.

Kindly note that should our advisers become aware of the above at a later stage, they have complete discretion to withdraw the NVNF Guarantee.

We believe in our work, and we want to give you the confidence and peace of mind that your case is in the safe hands of our advisers. We hope that our NVNF Guarantee gives you this comfort in our capabilities.

VAT

Applicants who are resident outside the European Union are not liable to pay VAT. If you are, however, applying from within the UK or the European Union, VAT of 20% will be charged on all transactions.

Refund Policy

Under the Consumer Protection (Distance Selling) Regulations 2000, for some non-business instructions that are agreed without a meeting, you may have the right to withdraw, without charge, within 7 working days of the date on which you asked us to act for you. However, if we start work with your consent within that period, you lose that right to withdraw. Your acceptance of these terms and conditions of business will amount to such consent. If you seek to withdraw instructions, you should give notice by telephone, email or letter to the person named in these terms of business as being responsible for your work. The Regulations require us to inform you that the work involved is likely to take more than 30 days.

If you have further queries regarding our refund policy, please contact JP Breytenbach, who will look into your matter.

Quality service and insurance details

In all our dealings with our clients, we aim to provide high-quality service and to find out what our clients require. We try to work quickly and efficiently, and we hope you find us friendly and approachable. At the end of the transaction, we hope you will agree our fee represents good value for money. Any positive suggestions to improve our services in order to make it easier for our clients to work with us are always welcomed and genuinely appreciated.

Indemnity insurance

We maintain professional indemnity insurance in accordance with the rules of the OISC. Details of the insurers and the territorial coverage of the policy are available for inspection at our offices at the address shown on the “Contact us” pages.

We may disclose and exchange information with law enforcement agencies and regulatory bodies to comply with our legal and regulatory obligations.

We may also need to share some personal data with other parties, such as potential buyers of some or all of our business or during a re-structuring. Usually, information will be anonymised, but this may not always be possible. The recipient of the information will be bound by confidentiality obligations.

We will not share your personal data with any other third party.

Where your personal data is held

Information may be held at our offices and those of our Breytenbachs Immigration and Property Services (PTY) Ltd, third party agencies, service providers, representatives and agents as described above (see ‘Who we share your personal data with’).

Some of these third parties may be based outside the European Economic Area. For more information, including on how we safeguard your personal data when this occurs, see below: ‘Transferring your personal data out of the EEA’.

How long your personal data will be kept

  1. To respond to any questions, complaints or claims made by you or on your behalf;
  2. To show that we treated you fairly;
  3. To keep records required by law.

We will not retain your data for longer than necessary for the purposes set out in this policy. Different retention periods apply for different types of data.

  2. With your and our service providers located outside the EEA;
  3. If you are based outside the EEA;
  4. Where there is an international dimension to the matter in which we are advising you.

These transfers are subject to special rules under European and UK data protection law.

Some non-EEA countries do not have the same data protection laws as the United Kingdom and EEA. We will, however, ensure the transfer complies with data protection law and all personal data will be secure. Our standard practice is to use standard data protection contract clauses which have been approved by the European Commission.

  • Details of your qualifications, experience, employment history, including job titles, salary, working hours and interests;
  • Your racial or ethnic origin, sex, sexual orientation, religious or similar beliefs;
  • Information regarding your criminal record;
  • Details of your referees.

We may collect the following information after the shortlisting stage, and before making a final decision to recruit:

  • Information regarding your academic and professional qualifications;
  • Information regarding your criminal record, in criminal records certificates (CRCs) and enhanced criminal records certificates (ECRCs);
  • Your nationality and immigration status and information from related documents, such as your passport or other identification and immigration information;
  • A copy of your driving licence.
  • You are required (by law or in order to enter into your contract of employment) to provide the categories of information marked ‘’ above to us to enable us to verify your right to work and suitability for the position.

How we collect the information

We may collect this information from you, your referees (details of whom you will have provided), your education provider[, the relevant professional body][, the Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS)] and the Home Office.

Why we collect the information and how we use it

We will typically collect and use this information for the following purposes (other purposes that may also apply are explained in our [set out details, e.g., data protection policy]):

To take steps to enter into a contract;

For compliance with a legal obligation (e.g. our obligation to check that you are eligible to work in the United Kingdom);

For the performance of a task carried out in the public interest; and

For the purposes of our legitimate interests, but only if these are not overridden by your interests, rights or freedoms.

We seek to ensure that our information collection and processing is always proportionate. We will notify you of any changes to the information we collect or to the purposes for which we collect and process it.

How we may share the information

We may also need to share some of the above categories of personal information with other parties, such as HR consultants and professional advisers.

We may also be required to share some personal information with our regulators or as required to comply with the law.

We will keep recruitment information (including interview notes) for no longer than is reasonable, taking into account the limitation periods for potential claims such as race or sex discrimination (as extended to take account of early conciliation), after which they will be destroyed. If there is a clear business reason for keeping recruitment records for longer than the recruitment period, we may do so but we will first consider whether the records can be pseudonymised, and the longer period for which they will be kept.

If your application is successful, we will keep only the recruitment information that is necessary in relation to your employment. For further information, please ask for our Data Protection Privacy Notice (Employment).

Privacy Policy – Breytenbachs Immigration Consultants (Pty) Ltd – South Africa

Privacy Policy

You can download the Privacy Policy of Breytenbachs Immigration Consultants (Pty) Ltd as prescribed by the provisions of the South African Protection of Personal Information Act of 2013 below.

Promotion of Access to Information Act Manual

You can download the Promotion of Access to Information Act Manual of Breytenbachs Immigration Consultants (Pty) Ltd as prescribed by the provisions of the South African Protection of Personal Information Act of 2013 below. This manual explains how you can request information from us, and how our Information Officer deals with requests.

Free Advice Policy

We believe that free advice given over the telephone on the basis of a brief conversation is often dangerous as it is necessary to obtain the full facts of a case before advising. Sometimes, seemingly irrelevant information can make or break a case.

It should also be mentioned that we have unfortunately found that some people in the past tended to abuse our free advice policy. This deflected the attention of our qualified staff away from our existing clients. Our aim is to satisfy the needs of our clients without distraction. It is, therefore, obvious that we cannot give free advice to people who are not clients of the firm or who do not wish to become clients. If you have a very brief query, we will endeavour to assist you free of charge, although we do reserve the right to refuse free advice.

For more detailed advice and in-depth assistance, we recommend that you rather make use of one of our assessment options at a nominal rate, which will be deducted from your application fee, should you apply within three months of our consultation.

We also suggest that you first have a look at our website before you contact us for free advice.

Guide dogs policy

Guide dogs are allowed and welcomed in all Breytenbachs Immigration Consultant offices.

Note, however, that all the buildings where our offices are located have policies prohibiting the entry of any animals other than guide dogs.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

Governing Law

Our Terms and Conditions are governed by and construed in accordance with the law of England & Wales.
