Membership Fees

National Members Fees

How does IFACCA calculate national member fees?  The IFACCA board has set a sliding range of fees using the United Nations Scale of Assessments.

What is your fee?  The annual fee is your country’s UN Scale multiplied by AUD20,000 and rounded.  The fee covers 1 January to 30 December. The national membership fees can be downloaded as a PDF file here: national member fees. Organisations whose annual fee is below 1,000 Australian dollars are asked to pay three years’ membership at a time. This ‘lower fee paying policy’ is described in detail in the documents below.

What if you want to contribute more than the fee? In several cases, national members have contributed more than the UN Scale figure.  Such additional contributions are greatefully accepted.

What if the fee is too high?   The board realises that some arts council budgets do not reflect their nation’s GNP and that the set fee may be unrealistically high.  In this case, the board invites proposals for a lesser fee.
