The OPG registration fee is separate. Every LPA must be registered with the Office of the Public Guardian, which charges a statutory fee of £92.00 per LPA (effective 17 November 2025) when you post your signed forms. This fee goes to the government, not SmartLPA.
You may pay less, or nothing. If the donor’s gross annual income is under £12,000, a 50% reduction applies (£46 per LPA). If the donor receives certain means-tested benefits, the fee may be waived entirely (£0) using form LPA120, submitted with the LPA at registration. We’ll help you check — this is an estimate, and the OPG decides based on your application and supporting evidence.
Whichever plan you choose, you get the full SmartLPA engine — make, check and review, from first question to registration-ready forms.
Plain-English questions, structured inputs and address lookup — no legal jargon, no blank boxes.
Every answer checked against real OPG criteria — the errors behind ~50,000 rejections a year, caught before you sign.
Your answers placed onto genuine LP1F / LP1H templates, pixel-accurate and ready to print.
Signing an LPA in the wrong order makes it invalid. Send a photo of your signed pages. They're read and the dates and signing order checked automatically, before the OPG sees them.
Life happens. Your application is saved as you go — come back on any device, whenever you're ready.
AES-256 encryption at rest. We delete photos of your signed forms after 30 days, finished LPAs after 180 days, and unfinished drafts after 120 days.

*Paper forms are free to fill in, but mistakes cost you the £92 OPG fee again — and months of delay. All options pay the statutory £92 OPG registration fee per LPA.
We’re so confident in our OPG-rule engine that if the OPG rejects your LPA for an error our checks should have caught, you get your money back — and we’ll help you resubmit for free.
