#### 12 Amount of charge
Amount of charge
(1) The amount of charge payable by the registered migration agent is the amount worked out using the following formula:
where:
> notional general charge means the amount of general charge that would have been payable by the agent in relation to the agent’s current period of registration if the non‑commercial application charge had not been payable by the agent in relation to that period.
> paid non‑commercial application charge means the amount of non‑commercial application charge paid by the agent in relation to the agent’s current period of registration.
> remaining period means the period that:
(a) starts on the first day in the agent’s current period of the registration on which the agent begins to give immigration assistance otherwise than on a non‑commercial basis; and
(b) ends on the last day of the agent’s current period of registration.
Rounding
(2) If the amount worked out using the formula is not a number of whole dollars, it is to be rounded down to the nearest whole dollar.
