The Minister has lowered the exam fees from 9 July 2015. Exam candidates who paid the higher exam fee from 9 July 2015 will receive automatic refund. First, exam candidates will receive an e-mail from DUO with the exact amount that will be paid back. The money will then be returned to the bank account that was originally used to pay the exam fee. The refund will be done within a period of 6 weeks after DUO sends the e-mail. Exam candidates do not need to take action themselves.
