The Hong Kong Examinations and Assessment Authority (HKEAA) is significantly increasing the registration fee for the Hong Kong Diploma of Secondary Education (HKDSE) exam for candidates taking it on the mainland. Starting in 2027, the fee will jump to HK$8,000, a 220% increase from the current HK$2,500, following the conclusion of a three-year pilot scheme. This adjustment is intended to cover the operational costs of mainland examination centers, which include security, personnel, and logistics for question papers and answer scripts. Local students will see a more modest 4% increase in their subject fees. AI
