ACCA Fee Calculator 2026
Total cost for India, UAE & Mauritius — official ACCA fees, exemptions, subscriptions and Eduyush tuition in one place.
What Does ACCA Actually Cost? The Complete Picture
Most students find the registration fee — £30 in India after discount, £89 elsewhere — and assume that is the main cost. It is not. Registration is the smallest line item. The real cost includes annual subscriptions for every year you stay registered, an exemption fee for every paper waived based on your prior qualification, exam entry fees for each paper you sit, the Ethics and Professional Skills Module, and tuition.
For an Indian B.Com graduate the total official ACCA fees across three years typically come to around £2,450 — approximately ₹3,19,000 at current exchange rates — before tuition. A CA Qualified student completing only Strategic Professional can finish in one year for around £2,000 in official fees, but exemption fees alone account for nearly half of that.
India vs UAE vs Mauritius — Key Differences
India is the only market of the three where ACCA applies a meaningful discount. Initial registration drops from £89 to £30, and Applied Skills exam fees are £151 versus £155 in UAE and Mauritius. UAE and Mauritius students pay identical standard rates with no discounts.
How Prior Qualifications Reduce Your ACCA Journey
Indian B.Com graduates receive 5 exemptions covering Applied Knowledge (BT, MA, FA) plus LW and TX from Applied Skills, meaning 8 papers to sit over approximately 3 years. CA Inter students receive 6 exemptions — the same 5 as B.Com plus AA — leaving 7 papers and roughly 2 years. CA Qualified students receive the maximum 9 exemptions covering all Knowledge and Skills papers, leaving only the 4 Strategic Professional papers completable in approximately 1 year.
