Pharmacy Daily | National registration fees

THE new national Pharmacy Board of Australia has published its schedule of fees which will become effective from 01 July. The new annual fee for general registration will be $295 - but there’s a $5 rebate for registrants who have their principal place of practice in NSW, meaning they will pay $290 a year. Applications for general registration will attract a $150 fee and for initial registration both this fee and the annual renewal registration fee will apply. Interns will also pay a $295 fee for oral examinations, while there are no fees for the registration of pharmacy students. Applicants for provisional registration will pay $100, while the application fee for non-practising registration and endorsement of registration is also $150. The annual fee for non-practising or limited registration is also $295, while provisional registrants will pay $150 a year. Late renewal of registration will attract a $150 fee and it will cost $20 for a replacement registration certificate, and $10 for an extract from the register. The Board will also apply a $150 “pharmacy return-to-practice assessment fee” and copies of the register will be available for a $2000 fee - but only if the application is assessed as being in the public interest.
