Dear Friend,
Paying annual membership fee is not restricted to ACCA only. Every professional body requires its members to pay annual subscription which entitles the member to certain benefits.
At present there is no provision as not to pay the annual fee. ACCA gives three years time after qualifying to apply for the membership. After three years, even if you do not apply for membership, you have to pay the annual fee applicable for members. Please also note that in the period when you are not a member, you'll have to pay the annual fee applicable to affiliates.
