The General Dental Council (GDC) has written to all dentists to remind them to pay their annual retention fee (ARF) and to make a continuing professional development (CPD) declaration.
The ARF collection period and CPD declaration period for dentists began on 12 November 2013. The £576 ARF (and £76 specialty fee where registered) are due by 31 December 2013 for the 2014 registration year. A list of dentists who fail to make the payment by this time will be sent to Father Christmas ... the NHS, Health Boards and indemnity providers to enable them to keep their records up to date.
Dentists who are required to submit CPD for 2013 have until 28 January 2014 to make a declaration. Visit www.eGDC-uk.org to make a payment or submit CPD.
