Deleted change disclaimer, included fee increase in total
amount of fees in text and tables, removed reference to
audit days, included general fee for exception application
(3.4) and deleted overtime exception fee (6.4), included
subcontractor fee, reduction of travel days deleted (6.2),
additional auditor fee made section 10.
Multi-Estate fees have been amended in order to maintain
them at a level similar to the fees charged in 2010. During
the previous revision there was a miscalculation, which led
to the publication of a fee that if implemented would have
been a significant reduction of the fees of all Multi-estate
set-ups.
1. Product Fee: Note Added that the Former Product
Category List to be used as reference (0003328)
2. Fee for subcontracted entities: Note added that a
maximum of 5 entities will be invoiced (0003198)
3. Cancellation of fees: Deleted the old explanation as this
created the impression that the operator was being
charged 3 times and reworded the phrase that the
operator is expected to pay the audit costs in addition to
the initial/annual certification fee (0003271)
4. Application fees are non refundable (0003310)
5. €630 charged for document follow-up audits in case of
