To go/come/leave.

I’m still going to have to charge you for this.

in addition to the physical act of go, come and leave, Voy a…” indicates a plan, or something unavoidable, something deliberate, that you will do in the near future

in this case ir is used in place of the english for i will /i’ll /i’ll be /i wont. for example, ‘i’ll want some coffee’ as the ‘i’ll’ can be seen as im going to/ come to. e.g ‘voy a querer un café’ (i come to want coffee/ ‘i’ll want some coffee’).
