New ACVM Fees and Charges

New fees and charges come into force from 1 July 2008.

Application fees

The hourly rate for application assessment increases from $121.50 (incl GST) per hour to $149.62 (incl GST) per hour.

The pre-screen fee for applications increases from $364.50 (incl GST) to $545.60 (incl GST).

A revised estimate of fees and charges will be available on the website.

Annual fees

The annual fee will increase to $545.62 (incl GST) for every 12 month period.

However, to enable registrations to get into the new annual fee due date cycle, this year registrants will be charged for the period 1 July 2008 - 30 September 2009 (15 months). This equates to a fee of $682.03 (incl GST).

Adjustments

For applications received and paid for prior to 1 July 2008 (at the old rates), NZFSA will record the hours done at the new rate and invoice applicants for any material difference.
