Eco-Markets Australia (EMA) has released its updated Fee Schedule, reflecting market conditions and emerging national water quality and biodiversity markets.

The revised schedule introduces new categories and pricing structures designed to support innovation, transparency, and equitable access across the sector.

Key updates include:

• Cassowary Credits Integration: Support for not-for-profit participants with a 50% discount applied to several fees. Additional fees have been included to meet the rules and requirements set within the Standard and approved Methodology.
• Methodology Development Support: Developers can now access structured support through concept meetings, workshops, and application assessments, with fees applied depending on the stage and complexity.
• Advisory Services: EMA offers tailored guidance through its Secretariat and Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) for proponents and other interested parties.
• Credit Royalty: A fixed royalty percentage is now applied to credit retirement costs in place of the fixed fee for credit sales
