5% annual renewal fee rise for veterinary surgeons and veterinary nurses

Annual renewal fees for veterinary surgeons and veterinary nurses will increase by 5% for 2017-2018. The increase follows a six-year renewal fee freeze for veterinary surgeons and veterinary nurses, which have remained at £299 (for UK-practising vets) and £61 respectively.

This increase will change the renewal fees for the registration categories as follows:

  • UK-practicing vets: £314
  • Practicing outside the UK: £157
  • Non-practicing: £51
  • Veterinary nurses: £64
