CQLS Service Fees
CQLS Fee update July 2025
The CQLS is in the process of re-calculating fees. Fees are generally re-calculated yearly but the CQLS hasn't updated fees since 2022. New fees will show up on this page soon and in RELMS. Please contact us if you need new fees early for planning or proposals or with any questions.
