See our Cancellation Policy

We are required to comply with tax regulations in the countries where we provide services such as exams or events. In some countries there are no additional taxes levied on the services the College provides, however in others there can be a range of liabilities which must be paid.

These taxes include, but are not limited to, digital services taxes, value-added taxes, or goods and services taxes that apply to online services such as exams, membership, or events. 

Where such tax obligations exist, it is the responsibility of the candidate or member to meet those costs. 

Any applicable tax amount will be added to your account and must be paid in addition to the respective exam fee.

Taxes apply to both Theory and OSCE (practical) exams and are determined based on the candidate’s country of residence, NOT the location where the exam is taken.

These tax rates are set by the respective governments and are beyond the College’s control. The College is obligated to collect and pass on these taxes in accordance with local laws.
