Introduction to the 'Members Page'
Starting from April 1, 2025, the membership management system will be updated to enhance security and improve convenience, and a 'Members Page' will be launched.
On the members-only site, you will find menus for "Viewing and Updating Member Information," "Changing or Reissuing Passwords," "Membership Fee Payment and Invoice Inquiry," "Issuing Receipts and Invoices," "Announcements," "Surveys," and "Contacting the Secretariat." In addition to being able to update your contact information and check your membership fee payment status, you will also be able to reissue your login password as well as receipts and invoices directly through the system.
How to Apply for Membership
Please complete your membership application through the "Membership Application (Online)" link below. Once your application is received, you will receive a confirmation email. For the membership fee and first-year annual dues, please refer to the email we sent separately and make the payment via credit card.
If you wish to apply for student membership, please upload a PDF of your student ID or proof of enrollment from the application screen.
Your membership process will be completed once your membership information is registered and payment is confirmed.

- For Oversea Associate Student Members, when 4 years pass after joining and there is no declaration of student, the membership category will be transferred to Oversea Associate Regular Member.
