Why Has the Application Fee Increased?

This is the first application fee increase in 10 years, reflecting EBIR’s commitment to quality and accessibility improvements:

  • Remote Exam Access: Candidates can now take the exam remotely, eliminating travel requirements and allowing greater flexibility.
  • Expanded Language Options: The exam is now available in German, Spanish, and Italian, broadening accessibility worldwide.
  • Updated Curriculum: The European Curriculum and Syllabus for Interventional Radiology, published in 2023, provides the foundation for the exam and includes the latest techniques and technologies.
  • Expert Review: All exam materials are rigorously reviewed by IR experts.
  • Enhanced Quality Assurance: Each exam and question undergoes in-depth analysis by a psychometrician, ensuring high standards and exam quality.

These enhancements reinforce the EBIR exam’s value, making it even more relevant for integration into national IR training pathways.
