Plain English Summary

2/10 complexity

This instrument replaces earlier timing rules and fixes when the registration status charge is payable for migration agents who move from non-commercial (volunteer) to commercial (paid) status. It specifies the charge becomes due 28 days after MARA issues the notice stating the amount owed. This gives affected agents a predictable 28-day payment window.
