When you go through sequestration you are required to pay Administration fees to the Accountant in Bankruptcy. This currently amounts to £100.

Although it is possible to complete the Debtor's Petition yourself and go through the sequestration without an adviser, this is generally not recommended. At the beginning of the Debtor's Petition it says, 'we strongly advise that you seek advice, if you have not already done so, before applying for bankruptcy'. You then have to disclose whether you have had the form filled in professionally or attempted to do it yourself. Thus it is always a good idea to get input from professionals when taking the important step of declaring yourself bankrupt.
