SITMA Fees

SITMA is financed through a combination of annual membership fees and lodgement fees. This enables the scheme to be fairly funded according to usage.

Lodgement fees are automatically accrued for each tester and invoiced monthly in arrears. Invoices are issued either directly to the tester, or to the testers assigned company if requested to do so during the application process.

Fees will increase in-line with Consumer Price Index (CPI) as shown on ONS.gov.uk – (12-month rate as of December of the previous year).
