Update on Annual Accreditation Fee from Feb 2026

Jan 13, 2026

The International Association for Quality Assurance in Pre-Tertiary and Higher Education (QAHE) wishes to inform all accredited institutions and partners that, effective 1st February 2026, our annual accreditation fee will be raised to US$680 + 5%. This adjustment reflects an approximate 3% increase necessary to cover rising operational costs.

It is important to note that no fee increase was implemented last year, and this decision was made after thorough discussions in our recent management meeting. We believe this modest increase will help us continue providing exceptional services and support to our accredited members.

For institutions wishing to renew at the previous fee rate of US$660 + 5%, we encourage you to contact us by January 30, 2025. If you settle the invoice within 2 weeks, you will be able to maintain the old fee structure for that year.

Thank you for your continued support and understanding as we strive to uphold the highest standards of quality assurance in education. If you have any questions or need further clarification, please do not hesitate to reach out.
