The timely and full payment of fees is a material obligation, the breach of which constitutes grounds for immediate suspension or termination of certification rights.
Article 2: Payment Methods and Authorization
2.1 Primary Method: Payment in Advance. The standard and required method of payment for all annual enrollment fees, certification issuance fees, audit fees, and any other levied charges is payment in full, in advance. Invoices issued by SDAB are due immediately upon receipt and must be settled prior to the commencement of the service period or the provision of the related service (e.g., issuance of a certificate, scheduling of a surveillance visit).
2.2 Approved Alternative Methods. SDAB may, at its sole and absolute discretion, approve an alternative payment method for a specific Enrolled Association. Any such alternative (e.g., phased payments, post-dated instruments, verified letter of credit) must be:
(a) Requested in writing by the Enrolled Association prior to the due date of the invoice;
(b) Explicitly defined and agreed in a written addendum signed by an authorized officer of SDAB; and
(c) Strictly adhered to as per the terms of the written addendum. Deviation from the agreed alternative schedule will be treated as a default, reinstating the requirement for immediate payment in full of any outstanding balance.
Article 3: Scope of Fees and Responsibility
3.1 Dual Enrollment Maintenance. Fee payments are required to maintain two distinct statuses:
(a) The Enrolled Association’s own corporate enrollment and certification with SDAB; and
(b) The active enrollment of each individual student or client certified by the Association under the SDAB scheme.
3.2 Direct Student Payment Offset. As outlined in the Declarations and Logos section, an Enrolled Association’s liability for per-certificate issuance fees may be offset if, and only if, SDAB receives payment for that specific certificate fee directly from the certified student or client. The Enrolled Association remains ultimately responsible for ensuring the fee is paid and must provide evidence of the student’s direct payment instruction to SDAB to secure the offset.
3.3 Comprehensive Fee Liability. Fees are comprehensive unless otherwise stated and cover administration, listing in directories, and use of intellectual property. They do not cover costs for corrective action visits, extended audits, or travel and accommodation for SDAB representatives, which are billed separately as incurred.

(b) The right to use the SDAB name, logos, and marketing materials;
(c) The listing of the Association and its students in the public ASCB directory.
4.2 Accrual of Interest and Costs. Overdue balances will accrue interest at a rate of 1.5% per month (18% per annum) or the maximum rate allowed by Delaware law, whichever is lower. The Enrolled Association is also liable for all reasonable costs of collection, including legal fees and disbursements.
4.3 Termination. If payment is not received within thirty (30) days of the due date, SDAB reserves the right to terminate the enrollment and certification of the Association and all its students pursuant to the Termination provisions of the main Agreements.
Article 5: Currency and Taxes

All quoted fees are exclusive of any applicable value-added tax (VAT), goods and services tax (GST), or similar levies, which shall be added to invoices where required by law.
Article 6: Policy Amendments
SDAB reserves the right to amend its fee structure and payment terms upon providing sixty (60) days’ written notice to Enrolled Associations. Continued use of SDAB services following the effective date of amended fees constitutes acceptance of the new terms.
