Please note: The Global Office will invoice members in both US dollars and Euros at the beginning of each calendar year, calculating the dollar figures using current average exchange rates. The invoice is payable in Euros. If members have not sent the Secretariat copies of their most recent audited financial statements, their subscription will be calculated on the assumption that their sales figures have increased by 10% since the previous year.
