From 1 November 2025, the Commission will charge providers fees for the assessment of applications to become a registered provider and to renew or vary a provider’s registration, and for any audits related to the applications. For more information please visit Register and audit providers | Aged Care Quality and Safety Commission.
This interactive calculator will help you to estimate the fee to vary your registration under the new Aged Care Act.
The calculators are for providers, not for older people receiving care.
The calculators will only provide fee estimates. We will send you an invoice to advise of the amount payable after you have submitted your application.
Please note the Commission only charges variation fees to add registration categories, remove registration categories and add new Residential Care Homes.
