Accreditation Fee Structure
Transparent & Competitive Accreditation Fees
At ASCC, we maintain a clear and structured fee system to ensure fairness, transparency, and affordability for all Conformity Assessment Bodies (CABs) seeking accreditation. Our fee structure is designed to cover the costs of application processing, assessments, surveillance audits, and accreditation maintenance, ensuring compliance with international standards.

A yearly fee required to maintain accreditation status with ASCC.
Covers administrative expenses, database listing, and certification recognition.

Accreditation bodies undergo regular surveillance audits to ensure continued compliance.
The fee depends on the number of locations, scope of services, and audit duration.
