Specifically, this study examines whether there are significant differences in audit fees between the pre-pandemic and post-pandemic periods, taking into account various factors that might influence these fees. This research uses quantitative methods with a comparative approach to analyze differences in audit fees. This research focuses on a sample of public companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange. The research results show that there is no statistically significant difference in audit fees between the pre-pandemic (2017–2019) and post-pandemic (2020–2021) periods.
