For an adult assessment in South Africa centred on WAIS, plan on an estimated ZAR 4,000–6,000. This budget is based on a ZAR 3,410 adult IQ assessment that includes feedback and a report; broader neuropsychological assessment can cost ZAR 8,000.

An adult IQ assessment can include the report for ZAR 3,410

Psychometrics Eastern Cape estimates ZAR 3,410 for the complete adult cognitive ability or IQ assessment process. The fee includes the initial interview, assessment, feedback, and report, so ZAR 3,410 covers the process through to written results.

The fee schedule does not specify which intelligence test is used. Starting from this complete-service price, a budget of ZAR 4,000–6,000 allows for the use of WAIS or an additional interview.

Where to take the WAIS in South Africa explains how the assessment purpose affects the route.

A ZAR 8,000 neuropsychological assessment covers a wider scope

KPM Psychology lists broader work such as neuropsychological and legal assessment at ZAR 8,000. These services address a wider range of clinical or legal questions than cognitive ability alone.

For IQ and a cognitive profile, the price of a broad neuropsychological assessment is not the minimum budget. An adult cognitive assessment that includes analysis, feedback, and a report is the better starting point. The fee rises when the assessment also covers additional areas of functioning or diagnostic questions.
