<div class="warnbox">We are currently not accepting any new members.</div>

**ATTENTION: In 2024, the annual fee will increase once to 200 € instead of 100 €! This will come into force on 01.01.2024 with the resolution of the General Assembly on 09.12.2023.**

You can find a detailed step-by-step guide to the recording process here. If you follow it carefully, you will avoid unnecessary delays.

Due to our geographical spread and the legal framework (the board of directors must personally sign the admissions), this process can take a few days or weeks. Please be patient with us.
