Statutory Naktuinbouw fees rise with inflation
Publicationdate: 28 november 2024
Naktuinbouw will increase its fees by 6.5% on 1 January 2025. The increase applies to variety testing, inspection activities and laboratory tests. This rise is prompted by higher personnel costs and other costs and reflects the effects of inflation. Naktuinbouw can continue to cover its costs thanks to this price adjustment.
Variety Testing
The Dutch Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries, Food Security and Nature (LVVN) is currently establishing the new fees that will apply for the Board for Plant Varieties from 1 January 2025. Our fees for variety testing activities are based on these rates. The fees for DUS research will be listed on the website of the Board for Plant Varieties.
Naktuinbouw will publish the fees for Variety Testing 2025 on this website before the end of December 2024.
Inspections
The three sector boards submit an annual proposal for the (statutory) inspection fees to ensure the costs of inspection activities are covered. The fees are then adopted definitively by our board. Subsequent approval from the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries, Food Security and Nature is required. Naktuinbouw is not permitted to use revenue for any other internal purposes. No financial support from the Ministry of LVVN is received for our activities. The cost maker-cost bearer principle is applied when establishing the statutory fees.
The Ministry of LVVN sets/ has set the new fees for our inspections for 2025 based on the above-mentioned inflation adjustment. Naktuinbouw will publish the inspection fees 2025, including the fees for the import and export inspections, on this website before the end of December 2024. Would you like to learn more about how the phytosanitary fees are calculated? Please read the Memorandum on transparency of fees.
Testing & Analyses
Our fees for laboratory testing are adjusted annually in line with rising costs. The fees for these services are outside the statutory framework and therefore conform with market prices. Naktuinbouw will publish the fees for Testing & Analyses 2025 on this website befor the end of December 2024.
