How Much OET Costs (2025)

Here are all the costs you need to know about when booking your OET exam.

Registering with any healthcare organisation can be expensive so at Fast Track IELTS, we wanted to create a clear, comprehensive list of the costs that you will have to consider when taking the OET.

Any costs that we have listed may be subject to change depending on current conversion rates.

So if you want to be cost-efficient, read this comprehensive list to avoid wasting any money.

When you cancel before bookings close, the cancellation fee will be AUD$120 plus AUD$7 booking fee. This totals AUD $127.

When you cancel after bookings close, the cancellation fee will be AUD$200 plus AUD$7 booking fee. This totals AUD $207.
