Join AIPPI by completing the form below. Please note that a membership fee applies, and this is set by the AIPPI National or Regional Group in your country – or by the AIPPI General Secretariat if no AIPPI National or Regional Group exists in your country.
If there is a National or Regional Group in your country, your local AIPPI group will contact you with further information. According to AIPPI’s Statutes, all members of a National or Regional Group are automatically members of the international association.
If your principal professional or business activity is located in a country where no National or Regional Group of AIPPI exists, you may join as an Independent Member. In this case, the AIPPI General Secretariat in Switzerland will process your membership.
AIPPI’s membership structure is based on individual and personal members.
Some National or Regional Groups allow a Company owned membership. This membership is with a company, to which the annual invoice goes, but it is matched to one individual from that company.
AIPPI does not offer a Corporate membership in which more than one individual can benefit from AIPPI’s offers for a certain fee.
Please read the AIPPI Cookie and Privacy Policy before submitting your application.
