Abstract:

This document describes the fees for organizations choosing to pay on
monthly, quarterly, and semi-annual installments.

Introduction

Understanding the fact that some organizations may find a single lump
sum payment per year for their APNIC membership either inconvenient or
a hardship, the APNIC membership has voted to accept an installment
plan enabling organizations to spread the APNIC membership fee out
over a longer time frame.

APNIC Installment Plan

In order to facilitate organizations who may find paying a yearly lump
sum either an inconvenience or a hardship, the following installment
plan was approved at the Montreal APNIC meeting in July, 1996.  The
installment plan is:

Time Period          small               medium              large
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Monthly:            US  $250            US  $500           US $1000 
Quarterly:          US  $700            US $1400           US $2800
Semi-Annual:        US $1300            US $2600           US $5200


This installment plan includes a surcharge for the additional
processing the handling of installments entails.  In addtion, it
should be noted that the one-time startup fee of US $1000 cannot be
paid in installments, it must be paid in full when the member joins
APNIC.

Conclusion

The APNIC Installment plan is intended to allow members to spread
their fees out over the year, thereby spreading the impact APNIC
membership fees might have over a longer time period.
