What is the reason for commas used as decimal separator instead of dots when indicating the fee?

The fees are indicated in the customary notation of the country and, since the IAPM is a Liechtenstein organisation, commas are used as decimal separators instead of dots. The same spelling is also used in IAPM invoices (e.g. 95,00 CHF instead of 95.00 CHF).

The IAPM certification

The certification can be taken via a reputable online examination procedure. The costs are based on the gross domestic product of your country of origin.
