The fee applies regardless of whether we grant or reject the application or the applicant withdraws the application, or we cease consideration during the procedure.

Application fee

Fees are charged for processing a permit application. The amount of these one-off costs is set out in the Regulation on the financing of financial supervision of one-off actions (Regeling bekostiging financieel toezicht eenmalige handelingen - Dutch only).

Fee for regular supervision

We also charge electronic money institutions an annual fee to cover the costs of our regular supervision on these institutions.
