3.0 WJEC Invoicing Policy
WJEC INVOICING POLICY 4
This section details the processes followed by WJEC in relation to invoicing centres for Entry Fees.
3.1 Issuing of Invoices
WJEC will issue invoices for each qualification as follows:
• On time entries will be invoiced at the end of the amendment window
• Late fees will be invoiced after the date on which very late fees are applied.
• Very late fees will be invoiced after the closing date for late Cash-Ins
Generally, invoices will be issued within 4 weeks of the above deadlines. Invoices will be sent in hard copy format to the centre contact and address held by WJEC's Finance Department.
3.2 Invoice Content
On time invoices will provide a breakdown of fees by qualification/unit, including unit price and quantity. For late and very late fees, the invoice will also provide detail of the candidates. Each invoice will be allocated a unique invoice number and will provide clear details of the fee being charged,
3.3 Payment Terms
WJEC payment terms are 21 days from the date of the invoice. If full payment is not received by this date, WJEC will instigate its standard credit control processes to collect overdue debts.
3.4 Payment of Invoices
Invoices should be settled by either bank transfer or cheque, and details of these methods of payment are included on each invoice.

SUPPLEMENTARY FEES 6
4.1 Late, Very Late Entries and Registrations
Centres must submit their entries (and registrations) in an accurate and timely way, to ensure that WJEC is able to provide correct examination and
assessment materials and issue examination results on time. WJEC actively encourages centres to submit their entries on time to avoid incurring additional
work and cost at WJEC and subsequent cost to themselves in the form of late fees and to allow sufficient time for centres' own self-review.
Entry Deadlines for all 2019/20 qualifications are detailed in 4.1a, along with the Amendment Window and dates from which Late Fees and Very Late Fees
will apply. The table below provides key information on entry terminology:
Terminology
Entry Candidate is correctly entered with appropriate personal details, qualification entry code and subject/unit entry code information (and Cash-In code where applicable) and entry complies with the related entry rules. A submission that does not have the appropriate information included and that does not comply with the entry rules is incorrect and will be rejected.
Entry Deadline The final date that entries can be received and processed by WJEC without incurring additional charges.
Amendment Window The period when centres can make amendments to entries at no additional cost.
Amendment Date The date by which all amendments to entries must be submitted, to ensure no additional charges will be applied.
Entry Fee The Entry Fee indicated for the specific qualification or unit.
Late Fee Date The date from which all entries and amendments will incur a Late Fee charge. The Late Fee is equivalent to 2 times the Entry Fee for that qualification (or unit).
Very Late Fee Date The date from which all entries and amendments will incur a Very Late Fee charge. The Very Late Fee is equivalent to 2.5 times the Entry Fee for that qualification (or unit).
Centres should be aware that WJEC may refuse late and very late entries for some qualifications if there is a risk to the integrity and security of the examination
or assessment delivery or to the processing of timely results.

Non-chargeable Amendments
• Centres can change the personal details for candidates entered for WJEC qualifications up to the Certificate Printing Deadlines outlined below, at no
additional charge.
Certificate Printing Deadlines
Series Certificate Printing Deadline
November 2019 31 January 2020
January 2020 31 March 2020
June 2020 9 September 2020
Chargeable Amendments
• If a centre submits a qualification or unit change (amendment) related to the following outside the amendment window:
− Tier
− Subject
• The centre will be charged a fee equivalent to the Late Fee or Very Late Fee (less the standard fee already paid), depending on when the late amendment
is made, subject to a minimum amendment fee of £10. For example, an amendment made on 24th October to the tier or subject of an entry for a November
series GCSE would be deemed a Late Entry and would generate an additional standard entry fee charge. Similarly, if an amendment was made as late
as 1st November, this would be deemed a Very Late Entry and would generate an additional amendment fee equivalent to one and half times the standard
entry fee.
• If candidate personal details are amended after the Certificate Printing Deadlines (indicated above), a £10 charge will be applied, to reflect the additional
time and materials required to issue a revised certificate. Please note that personal details may only be amended via this route up to 12 months after
certificate issue. If centres wish to amend personal details after this date, they will need to follow the replacement certificate process outlined on WJEC's
public website.
4.0 Supplementary Fees (continued)
SUPPLEMENTARY FEES 12
4.3 Late Cash-In (Aggregation) Fee
Where required, centres should include the appropriate Cash-In code for a qualification when submitting their entries to WJEC. If a Cash-In code is
subsequently submitted by the Amendment Date, then no additional charge will apply. If the Cash-In code is submitted after the Amendment Date, the
following fees will apply:
Late and Very Late Cash-In
Cash-In received after Amendment Date Late £10.00
Cash-In received between publication of results and 20th September 2020
Very Late £20.00
Please note that Cash-In codes need to be applied to some subjects in the following Qualifications:
• GCSE unitised
• A Level unitised
• Entry Pathways
• Applied Certificates and Diplomas
• Vocational Awards and Certificates

• Yr Iaith Ar Waith
4.0 Supplementary Fees (continued)
SUPPLEMENTARY FEES 13
4.4 Entry Withdrawal
If centres withdraw a candidate, subject or unit after the amendment date, in most cases the entry fee will not be refunded.
Where centres are waiting on candidate examination results for the GCSE January series in order to decide whether those candidates also need to be entered
for the GCSE summer series examinations, centres must enter all possible candidates by the entry deadline for the summer series. Centres can then
withdraw candidates, as required, during the amendment window, once January examination results are published early in March: in these circumstances,
the entry fee will not be charged.
Where a candidate is unable to sit an examination due to ill health or bereavement and a centre communicates this formally to WJEC within 2 weeks of the
examination date (along with an accompanying medical certificate for ill health cases), WJEC may refund the candidate entry fee. Eligibility for refund will be
considered on a case by case basis.
In situations where candidates are deceased prior to an examination sitting, the centre should provide a formal letter communicating this to WJEC so that we
can respond appropriately in relation to the fee refund and other matters.
All correspondence relating to the above should be sent to:
[email protected] or Entries, WJEC CBAC Ltd, 245 Western Avenue, Cardiff, CF5 2YX.
4.5 Transfer of Candidates
Where a candidate is entered for an examination at one centre and then needs to take the examination at an alternative UK or Non-UK centre*, the following
fees will apply:
Transfer fees
Candidates sitting examinations at UK centres £28.00
Candidates sitting examinations outside of the UK £56.00
*Please note that the centre must also meet the relevant JCQ requirements for transfer candidates.
