This year’s notification is not out yet. These figures come from the previous one. They are here so you can plan — not as this year’s official limits.
We have not been able to confirm these figures against the official notification. Check the source below before you rely on them.
Check your own date of birth
Your age is measured on the cut-off date, not today — which is why knowing your age is not the same as knowing whether you qualify.
Your date of birth and category stay in this browser. They are not sent to our server, not put in the page address and not written to any log.
