19 How much does membership cost? (Toastmasters International)

Upon joining Toastmasters, you will find yourself paying three
different fees. One is the standard $16.00 fee that every new
member must pay in order to receive educational materials (see
below). One is the standard International dues, $3.00 per
month. One is your Club dues, if any.

All Toastmasters clubs are billed in March and September for
semi-annual dues for their members who wish to remain members
for the next six months. If you join in between those
periods, you submit a _pro-rated_ share of the dues.

Clubs usually charge dues on top of the world dues. This is
so they'll have money in the treasury for expenses. It's up
to each club what they want to charge. Some clubs waive the
club dues for new members and only assess them at the semi-
annual dues payment dates.

So, to make a long story short, if you join at the following
times, you'd owe:

     April or October:     $16.00  +  $18.00   +  club dues
     May or November:      $16.00  +  $15.00   +  club dues
     June or December      $16.00  +  $12.00   +  club dues
     July or January       $16.00  +   $9.00   +  club dues
     August or February    $16.00  +   $6.00   +  club dues
     September or March    $16.00  +   $3.00   +  club dues

Then, once you're signed up, dues of $18.00 are assessed every
six months, in September and March.

* Note: due to California law, members of _California_ clubs
pay sales tax on their new member fee.
