Annual Fee Notice for 2024/25
Notice is hereby given that the annual fees are payable by persons registered in terms of the Health Professions Act, 1974 (Act No. 56 of 1974) before 01 of April each year. The 2024/25 Annual Fees are due and payable on or before 01 April 2024.
HPCSA has increased annual fees for 2024/25 with only 2% for all professional boards with a 4-year consolidated average of 3.09%. These increases were possible due to implemented cost saving initiatives by HPCSA which included savings further due to implementation of Business process Re-engineering and digital migration projects in the preceding financial years.
Current inflation is 5.30% and it is expected that increases may be higher in future financial year as expenditure continue to rise due to inflationary pressures.
When are fees due?
Annual fee payment – Annual fees are payable to the HPCSA by 01 April and are valid until 31 March of the following year.
Please note that it is the responsibility of every registered practitioner to ensure that his/her annual fee is paid by 01 April of each year.

Council urges Practitioners to use the Practitioner Online Portal to pay their Annual Fee.
Council launched a Practitioner Online Portal in March 2017 that enables practitioners to renew annual fees online. We urge practitioners to use the Online Portal to pay annual fees. Should you encounter challenges using the portal please contact the Call Centre on 012 338 9300/1.
For access to the Online Portal please Click Here.
Once you have gone through the renewal process online, including making the appropriate payment, you will be able to view and/or print an electronic “QR coded” proof of payment of current annual fee renewal for 2024/25. This is official HPCSA proof that a practitioner is up to date with their annual fee payments.
Practitioners working in Public Service facilities please note:
Employer and labour unions in the Public Health and Social Development Sectoral Bargaining Council signed Resolution 3 of 2019: Agreement on payment of annual statutory registration fees in respect of health care occupations for the Health and Social Development Departments.
All provincial government health practitioner employees must liaise with their respective provincial health departments to check if deductions were done on PERSAL for payment of their Annual Fees for 2024/25.
In terms of the Health Professions act, practitioners will remain responsible for the payment of any outstanding annual fees to Council.
The online portal can also be used to access practitioner account statements which will reflect all outstanding invoices due for payment. Even practitioners referred to above are encouraged to log on to the portal for them to access other services.
