Answers:

Why does the IFRS Foundation sell the standards and other products?

The IFRS Foundation is an independent not-for-profit organisation. Approximately 20% of our overall costs are covered by product sales and licensing. The remaining funds come from contributions from diverse public and private sources. Despite the need to ensure funding, we have taken steps to make the standards more accessible.

We offer free access to the Unaccompanied IFRS Standards and IFRS for SMEs, you need to be a registered user to view the content. Register here.

Access to the full standards does require purchasing a product from our shop http://shop.ifrs.org or from one of our licensees. We hope you do make a purchase as this directly contributes to the independence and funding of the IFRS Foundation.


Why will there be charges for shipping?

Customers will now be charged for shipping as per standard industry practice. As part of the shipping service customers will have shipping choices, paying less for a standard postal service or more for a courier service with tracking. The IFRS Foundation is an independent not-for-profit organisation. Asking our customers to pay for shipping is part of our strategy to devote more of our limited budget toward the standard-setting process
