02FIFA Agent Exam Format: 20 Questions, 60 Minutes, Open Book
The FIFA agent exam is 20 multiple-choice questions in 60 minutes, pass mark 75% (15/20). It's open book — but only the official FIFA documents inside the exam interface; no notes, no search engines. It's remotely proctored with two devices.
03FIFA Agent Exam Pass Rate: From 52% to 18% (2023–2025)
The FIFA agent exam pass rate has collapsed: 52% at the first exam in 2023, 40.4% across 2024, and just 18% in 2025. Fewer than one in five candidates now pass.
04FIFA Agent Exam & Licence Cost 2027: USD 600 + 300/year
You pay the exam fee to FIFA, not to your federation, and FIFA only reveals the amount on its Agent Platform, before you submit your application — member associations may not charge anything in relation to the exam. What is fixed and published is the licence: USD 600 within 90 days of passing, then USD 300 a year.

How to Choose a FIFA Agent Exam Prep Course (2027)
FIFA does not organise, endorse or approve any preparation course — its own study materials are the only official reference. So the choice is not between an approved course and the rest: it is between providers who can show how their questions are built, and providers who cannot.
FIFA Agent Course: What It Must Cover (the Exam's 13 Subjects)
FIFA neither offers nor endorses any preparation course: the official reference is the study material published for the exam.
