New amendments to the general rules for the Fellowship exam 2025
The Saudi Organization for Chartered and Professional Accountants has made amendments to the general rules for the fellowship exam, and these amendments will take effect starting from the third session of 2025
Based on the role of the Saudi Organization for Chartered Professional Accountants in developing the profession of accounting and auditing in the Kingdom, the organization has worked on restructuring the fellowship exam to keep pace with the rapid developments in the profession, respond to the needs of various economic sectors, and contribute to cementing the status of the certification locally and internationally. This initiative was based on a comprehensive study that involved several specialists and stakeholders and took into account international best practices, with the aim of enhancing the objectivity of evaluating the performance of candidates for the exam and extending the validity period of the subjects that were passed by thirty days.
These amendments are part of SOCPA's efforts to develop the regulatory framework for the fellowship examination, and will come into effect starting from the third session of 2025.
