Article 1
For the purpose of this Regulation ‘data reporting services provider’, or ‘DRSP’, means an approved publication arrangement or an approved reporting mechanism as defined in Article 2(1)(34) and Article 2(1)(36) of Regulation (EU) No 600/2014.
Article 2
Where a DRSP applies for authorisation to provide data reporting services it shall pay:
| (a) | for APAs and ARMs an application fee of EUR 20 000 for the first application and EUR 10 000 for each following application for authorisation of additional data reporting services in case the applicant does not have a derogation in accordance with Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2022/466 on derogation criteria (3); |
|---|
| (b) | for APAs and ARMs an authorisation fee of EUR 80 000 for the first authorisation and EUR 40 000 for each following authorisation of additional data reporting services, in case the applicant does not have a derogation in accordance with Delegated Regulation (EU) 2022/466. |
|---|
Article 3
A DRSP which is subject to ESMA supervision shall be charged an annual supervisory fee.
The total annual supervisory fee and the annual supervisory fee for a given DRSP shall be calculated as follows:
| (a) | the total annual supervisory fee for a given year (n) shall be the estimate of expenditure relating to the supervision of data reporting services providers’ activities under Regulation (EU) No 600/2014 as included in ESMA’s budget for that year; |
|---|
| (b) | a data reporting services provider’s annual supervisory fee for a given year (n) shall be the total annual supervisory fee determined pursuant to point (a) divided between all data reporting services providers authorised in year (n), in proportion to their applicable turnover calculated pursuant to Article 4. |
|---|
- In no case shall an APA or ARM authorised by ESMA pay an annual supervisory fee of less than EUR 30 000.
In case an entity is subject to minimum supervisory fees for more than one data reporting service, it shall pay the minimum supervisory fee for each service provided.
- By way of derogation of paragraphs 2 and 3, the first-year fee shall be calculated by lessening the authorisation fee referred to in Article 2(1), point (b) with a factor that is equal to the days between authorisation and the end of the year divided by the total number of days in that year. It shall hence be calculated as follows:
data reporting services provider first-year fee = Min (Authorisation fee, Authorisation fee * Coefficient)
Where a DRSP is authorised during the month of December, it shall not pay the first-year supervisory fee.
- By way of derogation from paragraphs 2 and 3, where the reassessment referred to in Article 1(3) of Delegated Regulation (EU) 2022/466 results in the derogation of ESMA supervision of a DRSP, the annual supervisory fee for the year in which the derogation applies shall be calculated solely for the 5 months in that year during which ESMA continues to be the supervisor of the DRSP in accordance with Article 1(4) of Delegated Regulation (EU) 2022/466.
Article 4
- DRSPs shall keep audited accounts for the purposes of this Regulation which distinguish between at least the following:
| (a) | revenues generated from ARM services; |
|---|
| (b) | revenues generated from APA services; |
|---|
| (c) | revenues generated from ancillary services to ARM activities; |
|---|
| (d) | revenues generated from ancillary services to APA activities. |
|---|
- The applicable turnover of a DRSP for a given year (n) shall be the sum of:
| (a) | its revenues generated from the core functions of the provision of ARM or APA services on the basis of the audited accounts of the year (n-2), or, if they are not yet available of the year previous to that (n-3) and |
|---|
| (b) | its applicable revenues from ancillary services on the basis of audited accounts of the year (n-2), or, if they are not yet available of the year previous to that (n-3),divided by the sum of: |
|---|
| (c) | the total revenues of all authorised ARMs or APAs generated from core functions of provision of ARM or APA services on the basis of the audited account during the year (n-2), or, if they are not yet available of the year previous to that (n-3) and |
|---|
| (d) | the total applicable revenues from ancillary services of all ARMs or APAs on the basis of audited accounts during the year (n-2), or, if they are not yet available of the year previous to that (n-3). |
|---|
Where the data reporting services provider did not operate during the full year (n-2), its applicable turnover shall be estimated according to the formula set out in paragraph 2 by extrapolating for the data reporting services provider the values calculated for the number of months during which the data reporting services provider operated in year (n-2) to the whole year (n-2).
DRSPs shall provide ESMA, on an annual basis, with audited accounts as referred to in paragraph 1. The documents shall be submitted to ESMA by electronic means no later than 30 September each year (n-1). If a DRSP authorised after 30 September, it shall provide the figures immediately upon authorisation and by end of the year of authorisation.
Article 5
All fees shall be payable in euro. They shall be paid as specified in Articles 6 and 7.
Any late payments shall incur the default interest laid down in Article 99 of Regulation (EU, Euratom) 2018/1046 of the European Parliament and of the Council (4).
Article 6
The fees for application, authorisation or extension of authorisation shall be due at the time the DRSP applies and shall be paid in full within 30 days from the date of issuance of ESMA’s invoice.
When a DRSP decides to withdraw its application for authorisation before ESMA adopts its reasoned decision to authorise or refuse authorisation, the application or authorisation fees shall not be reimbursed.
Article 7
The annual supervisory fee referred to in Article 3 shall be due at the beginning of each calendar year and paid in full to ESMA in the first three months of that year. ESMA shall submit an invoice specifying the full amount of the supervisory fee at the latest thirty days before the final payment date. The fees shall be calculated on the basis of the latest available information for annual fees.
When a DRSP decides to withdraw its authorisation, the annual supervisory fee shall not be reimbursed.
Article 8
In case of a delegation of tasks by ESMA to national competent authorities, the national competent authority shall not recover costs incurred while carrying out supervisory tasks delegated by ESMA directly from the DRSP.
ESMA shall reimburse a competent authority for the actual costs incurred as a result of work carried out pursuant to Regulation (EU) No 600/2014, in particular as a result of any delegation of tasks pursuant to Article 38o of Regulation (EU) No 600/2014.

| (a) | they should be previously agreed between ESMA and the NCA; |
|---|
| (b) | they should be proportionate to the turnover of the relevant DRSP; and |
|---|
| (c) | they should not be greater than the total amount of supervisory fees paid by the relevant DRSP. |
|---|
- Any delegation of tasks by ESMA to national competent authorities shall be determined on an independent basis, may be revoked at any time and shall not impact the amount of fees charged to a particular DRSP.
Article 9
- For the purposes of the calculation of the annual supervisory fee applicable to DRSPs under ESMA supervision for the year 2022, ESMA shall collect a fixed fee, based on the following calculations:
| (a) | EUR 350 000 for APAs that published transactions which accounted for more than 10 % of the total number of published transactions of all authorised APAs, either for equity or non-equity instruments, in the first 6 months of 2021, as reported by the competent authority concerned; |

| (b) | EUR 50 000 for APAs that published transactions which accounted for less than 10 % of the total number of published transactions of all authorised APAs, either for equity or non-equity instruments, in the first 6 months of 2021, as reported by the competent authority concerned; |
|---|
| (c) | EUR 650 000 for ARMs that submitted transaction reports to the relevant competent authority which accounted for more than 10 % of the total number of transaction reports submitted to competent authorities by all authorised ARMs in the first 6 months of 2021, as reported by the competent authority concerned; |
|---|
| (d) | EUR 50 000 for ARMs that submitted transaction reports to the relevant competent authority which accounted for less than 10 % of the total number of transaction reports submitted to competent authorities by all authorised ARMs in the first 6 months of 2021, as reported by the competent authority concerned. |
|---|
- ESMA shall provide the APAs and ARMs concerned with an invoice specifying the full amount of the fees for 2022 as soon as practically possible after this Regulation has started to apply, and at the latest thirty days before the final payment date.

|---|
| (d) | the total revenues generated from ancillary services to ARM or APA activities of all ARMs or APAs in the first 6 months of 2022. |
|---|
DRSPs shall, by 30 September 2022, inform ESMA about the amount of revenues generated from the core functions of the provision of ARM or APA services in the first 6 months of 2022 and about the amount of the revenues from ancillary services to ARM or APA activities in the first 6 months of 2022.
As soon as the audited accounts for the year 2022 become available, the DRSPs referred to in paragraph 1 shall immediately report those audited accounts to ESMA in accordance with Article 4(1).
ESMA shall calculate whether there is any difference between the annual supervisory fee for 2023 paid by the DRSP in accordance with paragraph 2 and the annual supervisory fee due for 2023 calculated on the basis of the audited accounts received in accordance with paragraph 3.
ESMA shall provide the DRSPs a first invoice specifying the amount of the supervisory fee for 2023 as referred to in paragraph 2 at the latest thirty days before the final payment date.

This is a consolidated text: the original law with every later amendment merged in, as the official publisher produced it for a given date. Laws are amended constantly, so “the law” has no single text, only a text per date. That date is the banner above.
It has no legal force. Only the version published in the official gazette (Mémorial / Official Journal) is authentic, the publishers say so themselves, and so do we. Lex reproduces their text without altering a byte, and links the source on every page. This is legal information, never legal advice: it reports what the text said, never what it means for your situation.
“Valid from → to” = the window in which this text applied. “Open” = still current as far as the publisher has consolidated. Each article carries its own hash so you can prove it was not tampered with , here is how.
