The fee rises each year and then tracks inflation from 2034
What the document says“for 2034 and each subsequent year, the amount specified in this paragraph for the previous year increased by the percentage increase in the consumer price index for all urban consumers (all items; United States city average) over the previous year.”
The per pound rate runs $0.25 for 2026, $0.35 for 2027, $0.50 for 2028, $0.60 for 2029, $0.75 for 2030, $1 for 2031, $1.25 for 2032 and $1.50 for 2033. The flat cap runs $30,000 for 2026, $40,000 for 2027, $50,000 for 2028, $75,000 for 2029, $100,000 for 2030, $125,000 for 2031, $170,000 for 2032 and $200,000 for 2033. From 2034 each figure rises by the increase in the consumer price index for all urban consumers over the previous year.
What the document actually says“for 2034 and each subsequent year, the amount specified in this paragraph for the previous year increased by the percentage increase in the consumer price index for all urban consumers (all items; United States city average) over the previous year.”
From 2034 the figure grows each year. It follows the rise in a price index. That index tracks what city shoppers pay.
Before that the figures are set in law year by year. The rate per pound starts at 25 cents. The flat cap starts at $30,000.
