ARRL VE Test Fee: $15.00

FCC Fee Information: https://www.arrl.org/fcc-application-fee

The exam fee entitles the candidate to take Elements 2, 3 and 4 as needed, up to all three for the license class desired.  

The FCC Fee is not to be paid at the exam session.  Those applying for a new license grant, renewal, or vanity call will be assessed a FCC fee.  Additional information can be found at the link above.  Examinees who are assessed the FCC Fee will receive an email and must pay within 10 days.

If a candidate fails an Element exam, they may retake a different version of the Element exam if another test fee is charged.

We require a FCC FRN for all examinees.  An FRN, or FCC registration number, is a 10-digit number that is assigned to a business or individual registering with the FCC. This unique FRN is used to identify the registrants business dealings with the FCC.  If you are a new applicant, you will be prompted during the registration process.

You will receive a pin during the registration.  This pin is valid for only one exam session.  You must register for every exam session.  No walk-ins allowed.
