ACCA December 2026 Exam Dates, Booking Deadlines and Fees in INR

If you plan to sit ACCA in December 2026, two numbers matter right now: how many weeks you have left to prepare, and how many weeks you have left to book at the normal price. Miss the second one and the same exam costs you more than double. This guide gives you the official December 2026 exam dates and paper-wise timetable, every booking deadline, and the full fee list converted into Indian rupees. All dates below are taken from ACCA’s own Important Dates and Exam Timetables pages (checked on 5 October 2026).

ACCA December 2026 Exam Dates: 7 to 11 December 2026

ACCA runs four exam sessions a year: March, June, September and December. The December 2026 session runs from Monday 7 December to Friday 11 December 2026 at ACCA-approved computer-based exam (CBE) centres across India, including Jaipur. December is a full session, so all Applied Skills and Strategic Professional exam variants are available.

ACCA December 2026 exam timetable (centre-based, as published by ACCA):

(Source: ACCA Global, Exam Timetables, December 2026. Local start times are shown in the Exam Planner and on your exam attendance docket.)

Plan your paper combination around this timetable. If you are sitting two papers, check they fall on different days with a gap for revision. For example, FR (Thursday) and FM (Friday) are back to back, while AA (Monday) and FR (Thursday) leave you two clear days in between.

What about BT, MA, FA and LW? Applied Knowledge papers (BT, MA, FA) are on-demand exams, so you can book them at a CBE centre on almost any date. Most LW variants are also on-demand; ACCA lists LW on Friday 11 December only for the session variant. If you are unsure which LW variant applies to you, WhatsApp us and we will check it with you.

ACCA December 2026 Important Dates and Booking Deadlines

ACCA prices each session by when you book. The exam is the same; only the price changes. All ACCA deadlines close at 23:59 UK time on the date listed, which is 5:29 am the next morning in India. To be safe, treat the listed date itself as your last day to book.

(Source: ACCA Global, Important Dates, December 2026 exam session. ACCA can change dates, so always confirm in myACCA before you pay.)

In practical terms: if you are ready to commit to December, book your papers on or before 2 November 2026. The late window runs for only one week after that, until 9 November, and costs more than double.

ACCA Exam Fees in INR for December 2026

ACCA charges in British pounds (GBP). The rupee figures below use the mid-market rate on 30 September 2026 (1 GBP = Rs.127; source: open.er-api.com), rounded. Your bank or card will add its own conversion margin, so confirm the GBP amount on accaglobal.com before paying.

What Booking Late Really Costs You

Take a typical student sitting two Applied Skills papers, say FR and AA, in December:

• Standard entry: 2 × £151 = £302, about Rs.38,350.
• Late entry: 2 × £387 = £774, about Rs.98,300.

That is roughly Rs.60,000 extra for the same two exams, just for booking a few weeks later. At Strategic Professional level the gap is about Rs.30,000 per SBR or option paper. In other words, booking on 3 November instead of 2 November can cost you as much as a full recorded course.

The second hidden cost is a re-sit. In June 2026 the global pass rates were 41% for PM, 47% for AA, 48% for FM and 52% for FR, and 39% for AAA. A failed paper means paying the full exam fee again in a later session (we worked out the real cost in What Your ACCA Exam Fee Actually Costs You If You Fail). Booking on time saves money; passing first time saves far more.

Should You Book December or Wait for March 2027?

Use this quick test before you pay:

• Book December now if you have finished, or will finish before the 2 November standard deadline, the full syllabus for the paper, and you can give the remaining weeks to timed mock exams.
• Consider March 2027 if more than a third of the syllabus is still untouched. Rushing an Applied Skills paper with no mock practice is the most common way students pay the fee twice.
• Not sure? Take one full timed mock this week. If you score 40% or more on a first, unprepared attempt, the nine weeks between now and exam week are usually enough to close the gap. If you score well below that, plan carefully before you commit.

For a week-by-week plan for each paper, read our ACCA December 2026 exam plan based on the June 2026 pass rates. To see why PM, FR, AA and FM catch so many students, read ACCA Pass Rates 2026: Which Papers Are Hardest and Why.

How to Book Your ACCA December 2026 Exam: 5 Steps

1. Log in to myACCA and make sure your annual subscription is paid; you cannot book exams with an outstanding balance.
2. Go to Exam Entry and choose the December 2026 session.
3. Select your papers and choose the CBE centre nearest you, then pick an available slot.
4. Pay by card in GBP. An international-enabled debit or credit card works; check that your bank allows foreign transactions first.
5. Save the confirmation and download your exam attendance docket from myACCA once it is released, about three weeks after the 2 November deadline. Carry it with a valid photo ID on the day.

Use the Weeks You Have Left: Mocks First

Once your exam is booked, the clock is the only thing that matters. The June 2026 results show that students rarely fail Applied Skills papers for lack of theory. They fail because they cannot finish a three-hour computer-based exam on time. Timed mocks fix that faster than another round of reading.

MBC’s ACCA mock tests on our online LMS are full-length, timed and set in the ACCA CBE style. The moment you submit, every question shows the correct answer beside the one you chose, with a worked solution, and your score report groups mistakes by topic so you know exactly what to revise next.
