IAFP Announces Tier-Pricing Membership Rates

The International Association for Food Protection (IAFP) will revise its Membership rates effective September 1, 2024, allowing for increasing costs in Association operations and meeting expenses over the past several years. Discussions onincreasing rates were 
postponed by the IAFP Executive Board in 2019–2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. This rate revision – the first in 17 years – will help keep up with expenses while continuing to provide excellent value for the many benefits IAFP consistently brings to its Members.

In addition, with the increased worldwide interest in food safety, IAFP will allow more accessibility to all potential Members by offering a tiered Membership at various levels based on the World Bank’s classification by gross national income (GNI) per capita. 

The four income groups and prices are:
• $80 High Income
• $40 Upper-Middle Income
• $20 Lower-Middle Income
• $10 Low Income
• Student Membership rates are half of the above rates.
