the registration and tracking of changes during the entire training of foundation doctors in the training register;
the registration or re-registration of specialists and doctors practising a profiel (a discipline protected as a trademark);
and the registration and recognition of training courses are paid from these fees.

The fees, which are set by the Koninklijke Nederlandsche Maatschappij tot bevordering der Geneeskunst (KNMG, the Dutch Royal Medical Association), are established by dividing the expenses incurred per process over all applications and the work required for that purpose. These expenses include labour costs, accommodation costs, automation costs and costs for legal proceedings.
