Accredion Qualis certification fees are transparent and based on published rules — not on the certification outcome.
| Component | Basis |
|---|---|
| Application & contract review | Flat fee at application stage |
| Audit fee (Stage 1 + Stage 2) | Auditor mandays × published daily rate; mandays per the standard's audit-days rule (e.g. ISO/IEC 27006 for ISMS) |
| Technical review & certification decision | Flat fee per certificate |
| Certificate issuance | Included in the audit fee — no separate charge |
| Annual surveillance | Approx. one-third of Stage 2 mandays, annually for years 1 and 2 |
| Recertification (year 3) | Approx. two-thirds of the initial Stage 2 mandays |
| Special / short-notice audits | Same daily rate; travel and expenses at cost |
| Scope extension / transfer | Auditor-day rate applied to the delta only |
All fees are exclusive of applicable indirect taxes. Reasonable travel, accommodation and communication expenses required for on-site audits are billed at actual cost, itemized on each invoice.
