          APNIC Non-Member Fee Schedule - 2010 

APNIC recognizes that some organizations wish to have access to 
resources from APNIC without becoming full APNIC members. These 
organizations can apply for resources and access certain APNIC services 
as APNIC non-member account holders. 

APNIC non-member account holders must pay the invoice for services 
before APNIC can provide services to the non-member account holder. The 
fees associated with specific types of resource services are detailed 
below. 


1. IPv4 addresses fees
----------------------

The fee for an assignment or allocation of IPv4 addresses (/32) is AUD 
1.60 per address, with a minimum fee of AUD 13,500.

The annual fee for maintenance of the registration of the assignment or 
allocation record is AUD 0.16 per IPv4 address, with a minimum fee of 
AUD 1,350. 

Failure to pay the annual registration fee will result in the 
registration record being removed from the APNIC Whois Database. 

The address space will then be returned to the APNIC free address pool 
to be reallocated. 


2. IPv6 addresses fees
----------------------

The fee for an assignment or allocation of IPv6 addresses is AUD 
0.00625 per /56 prefix, with a minimum fee of AUD 13,500.

The annual fee for maintenance of the registration of the assignment or 
allocation records is AUD 0.000625 per /56 prefix, with a minimum fee 
of AUD 1,350. 

Failure to pay the annual registration fee will result in the 
registration record being removed from the APNIC Whois Database. The 
address space will then be returned to the APNIC free address  pool to 
be reallocated. 


3. Autonomous System Number fees
--------------------------------

The fee for the assignment of an Autonomous System (AS) number is AUD 
800 per AS number. The annual fee for the registration record is AUD 80 
per AS number. Failure to pay the annual maintenance fee will result in 
the registration record being removed from the APNIC Whois Database. 

The AS number will then be returned to the APNIC free pool to be 
reassigned. 


4. Reverse DNS Delegation fees
------------------------------

The fee for a reverse DNS delegation in the in-addr.arpa tree is AUD 80 
per "natural class boundary" delegation (/24 and /16 delegations). 

Address ranges larger than a /24 but smaller than a /16 must be 
represented by multiple /24 reverse DNS delegations. For example, a /23 
address range would be represented by two /24 reverse DNS delegations 
for a total fee of AUD 160. 

Similarly, address ranges larger than /16 must be represented by 
multiple /16 reverse DNS delegations. 

The price for a reverse DNS delegation in the ip6.arpa tree is AUD 80 
per "nibble boundary" delegation. Examples of nibble boundaries in IPv6 
are /36 and /32. 

If a network wished to create reverse DNS delegations for a /35 
allocation, this would be represented by two /36 reverse DNS 
delegations for a total fee of AUD 160. 

There is no annual maintenance fee for reverse DNS delegations; 
however, APNIC will remove reverse DNS delegations if the delegations 
refer to persistently lame DNS. 

For more information on lame DNS delegations registered in the APNIC 
Whois Database, see: http://www.apnic.net/services/rev-del/lame-
del/lame-del-response.html


5. Annual Account fee for Registry Database Maintenance
-------------------------------------------------------

There is an annual account fee of AUD 160 for non-member account 
holders with allocations performed prior to the movement of their 
registration records ("historical resource records") to APNIC's 
registry wishing to have authorization to update these records and 
create assignment records within historical resource ranges. 

Failure to pay the database resource maintenance annual fee will result 
in your organization's maintainer being removed from the mnt-lower" 
field of your historical Internet resource records. 


6. Non-Member Account Reactivation fee
--------------------------------------

An organization whose APNIC registration records have been terminated 
for non-payment of fees may be returned to good standing by payment of 
a "non-membership reactivation fee" of AUD 3,000, in addition to 
payment of any outstanding unpaid fees. This option is available for a 
limited period of three months after termination of the registration 
record, after which time all previously allocated and assigned 
resources are subject to reallocation.
