Additional note for candidates taking the exam from India
If you are sitting your examination within India there is a requirement to pay an 18% Indian Goods and Services Tax (GST). This is not a charge imposed by the College but a legal requirement for educational and examination related services conducted in India. This tax applies only to candidates sitting their examinations in India. Once the application is submitted by the candidate and verified by RCPI, these candidates will be contacted by the RCPI Exams Department and requested to pay the 18% tax. The tax must be paid within 7 working days of this request. Failure to do so will result in the cancellation of the exam place and the application will be withdrawn. Please see the Indian Goods and Services Tax (GST) FAQ for further details by clicking on Examination Policies and Resources.
