Yearly ICC Membership Fees:

All fees (as of 2012) are in Euro and subject to the Austrian inflation index. The membership period is the calendar year (from January till December of each year).

1. Country Membership
   
   Based on population with three categories:
   
   • A...< 10 million:   € 2,950.-
   • B...10-50 million: € 4,950.-
   • C...> 50 million:   € 6,950.-
     
   
   Optional: Discount for low income countries:
   
   • Low income countries qualify for an optional 25% discount on ICC country Membership. Qualifying countries for a discounted ICC Country Membership fee can be found in the United Nation's Human Development Index (HDI) list of 2008 as low and/or medium human development countries OR in the World Bank's list of economies' income as low-income, lower-middle-income economies, and upper-middle-income economies. Making use of the discounted fee reduces the number of votes in the General Assembly, however an upgrading to become a fully paying Country Member is possible at any time and thus securing full voting rights.
