Assessment
DipIFR will be assessed by a single three-hour closed book written exam, which is held twice a year on June and December at ACCA's exam centres. The pass mark is 50%.
The initial registration fee of £150 includes one exam attempt, and covers you for a period of four exam sessions. You are required to attempt the exam at the first or second available exam session following registration.
Resits may be attempted during this period and will be charged at £100 per resit. If you do not successfully complete the DipIFR within the registration period, you will need to re-register and pay the appropriate fee in order to continue.
The diploma exam is held twice a year in June and December at one of ACCA's exam centres - we currently have over 350 exam centres around the world. ACCA can make special arrangements for you if you are disabled or have special needs.
Examinable documents
A definitive list of examinable documents for the Diploma in International Financial Reporting is issued by ACCA in May and in November each year. These examinable documents apply for the next but one exam session.
For example; examinable documents issued in November 2007 will apply to the June 2008 exam session, whereas the examinable documents issued in May 2008 will apply to the December 2008 exam session. These examinable documents contain International Financial Reporting Standards and IFRICs which apply to the syllabus and study guide for the Diploma in International Financial Reporting and operate under the six month rule whereby documents within this list are assessable in six months following the last day of the month in which this list of documents is issued.
The current list of examinable documents is available in the related documents section.
