The Ministry of National Education informs the public in general and the education community in particular that it has been decided to postpone the recent increase in the cost of enrollment in state examinations as stipulated in the ministerial circular, dated 4 August 2016, which stipulated that: a) The registration fee for exams of the 9th fundamental year are set at five hundred (500) Gourdes per candidate; b) For the bac exams : For regular candidates (new) the amount payable is seven hundred and fifty (750) Gourdes; For candidates that failed, the amount to be paid is one thousand (1000) Gourdes. https://www.haitilibre.com/en/news-18242-haiti-flash-government-imposes-fees-to-pass-the-bac.html

Accordingly, the previous procedures concerning the fees and related will be applied for the registration of candidates.

This decision was taken because of the socio-economic situation of families after the devastating passage of Hurricane Matthew and numerous calls of educational agents, especially parents.

The Ministry invites the Departmental Directors of Education to take all necessary measures to ensure the full application of this provision.
