Changes to our registration fees
On 23 February 2023 the HCPC Council agreed to the proposals to increase the annual registration fee from £98.12 to £117.74.
If approved by the UK and Scottish parliaments, the fee rise would not come into effect until the second half of 2023 at the earliest, with most professions not paying the revised fee until 2024 or 2025.
