For bathrooms there is a system of zones.

describes them.
Basically, if the ceiling is more than 3m high, then the fan would be
outside zones.
For a ceiling between 2.25 and 3m high and Zone 3 applies in the space
between these two heights for a distance horizontally to 0.6m from the
edges of the bath.
For a ceiling less than 2.2m high, Zone 2 applies for the 0.6m from
the edges of the bath and Zone 3 from there for a further 2.4m.
So for your scenario, I think that it will be Zone 3 or no zone.
In any case you can fit a fan that is stated to be suitable for
bathroom use.
Does this still apply if the fan is ducted and in the ceiling
void? Even with a lowish ceiling, the actual fan is well beyond
being accessible.
