SANC Fees Payment Plan for 2027
/Take the stress out of your SANC renewal.
Stay SANC Compliant in 2027 Without the Year-End Financial Squeeze
Every nurse and midwife registered in South Africa has to settle their SANC annual fee with the South African Nursing Council by the due date, year after year. It's a non-negotiable part of staying compliant - and it's the fee that determines whether you can legally keep working.
Once SANC receives your payment, they issue your Annual Practising Certificate (APC) - the document that confirms you're cleared to practice for the year ahead. No APC, no legal grounds to work.
Getting ahead of your 2027 APC
Instead of facing one large payment right as the year winds down, nurses working with us can spread the SANC fee out through a payment plan built around what you actually earn.
When is the 2027 SANC fee due?
SANC needs payment by 31 December 2026.

You choose your weekly repayments based on your income, so the payments actually fit your budget.
Check your balance any time on your pay slip - and reach out whenever you need to adjust or ask a question.
Nursing is demanding enough without a surprise bill landing in December. Our payment plan exists so registration is one less thing to worry about - it just runs quietly in the background while you focus on your patients and your career.

Contributions matched to your salary, so nothing throws off your budget.
Compliance handled automatically, with no lump sum to plan around.
Full visibility, since your balance shows up on every pay slip.
Support whenever you need it, day or night.
