National pesticide fees

Fees for applying for the authorisation of a pesticide and annual charges based on the sales value are regulated at national level.

The provisions regarding application fees and annual charges for pesticides are contained in the Pesticide Fees Ordinance. The fees apply to the evaluation of active substances in plant protection products and biocidal products, product authorisation, exemption and change of conditions. Annual charges are based on the value of the sales of pesticides during the previous year.
