Subscription rates for the year 2018-2019:
The membership year is from 1 June to 31 May, each year. Members are reminded that henceforth all membership fees must be paid directly to the Head Office in London. Members will receive a letter from Head Office advising them of the fee to be paid and how to login to the membership database www.shipbrokers.org, to do so. Please contact icsanz@icsanz.com if you have not yet received your 2018-2019 subscription notice.
ICS lapsed membership policy:
The ICS year runs from 1 June to the 31 May each year.
Each member is invoiced via e-mail and/or mail on 1 May.
Subscription must be paid by 1 June.
A subscription reminder letter is sent to all unpaid members via e-mail and/or mail in August.
A final reminder letter for payment is sent to all outstanding members via e-mail and/or mail in January.
Unpaid members will be reminded in May by email and/or mail that they will become lapsed on 31 May.
If a member does not pay their subscription either directly to head office or to their local branch by 31 May, then they are considered to be a lapsed member and their status is changed accordingly on both Branch office and Head Office records.
The list of members and non-members on the website will be updated in June each year.
The membership status of a lapsed member can be re-established if they settle the outstanding balance on their account.
