Step-by-Step Guide 

ICA membership is valid for one calendar year and runs from 1 January to 31 December. Renewing is straightforward, and you can begin the process as soon as the ICA General Assembly approves the scale of dues for the upcoming year.

Renewing Your Institutional Membership  

(Categories A, B, or C) 

Renew Before 1 January – Stay Ahead! 

1. 1. Log in to your ICA profile. 
   2. Click the “Renew to…” button next to your upcoming renewal date. 
   3. Review and confirm your institutional information. 
   4. Generate the invoice for the new membership year. 
   5. Choose your payment method: 

• • • Pay online, or 
    • Pay by bank transfer by selecting “Invoice me”. 
      • When making the bank transfer, please ensure that you select “OUR” (Payer bears all payment transaction fees) for the payment fees and clearly mention your invoice number in the payment reference. 

If your next renewal date is not 1 January of the coming year, this may indicate that your membership is in arrears. You can review any unpaid invoices under the “Invoices and payments” tab in your profile. Please note that renewal will not be possible until any outstanding invoice has been settled. 

Once payment is received by the ICA, your membership will be renewed.  

Renew After 1 January – Grace Period Details 

From 1 January, institutional memberships enter a grace period. During this time, your status will appear as “pending renewal”. 

• • If payment is not received within nine months, the membership will move to “in arrears”, and some benefits will no longer be available. 

• • On 1 January, your membership invoice will be sent automatically by email. 

To renew after 1 January: 

1. 1. Open the invoice email and follow the payment link, or 
   2. Log in to your ICA profile and retrieve the invoice under “Invoices and payments”. 
   3. Pay online or by bank transfer using the details provided on the invoice. 

• • • When making the bank transfer, please ensure that you select “OUR” (Payer bears all payment transaction fees) for the payment fees and clearly mention your invoice number in the payment reference. 

Once payment is completed, your full membership benefits are restored.  

Renewing Your Individual Membership  

(Category D) 

The renewal process for individual members is the same before and after 1 January. 

From 1 January, individual memberships enter a three-month grace period. If payment is not received during this time, the membership becomes lapsed and access to member benefits ends. 

To avoid any interruption, we recommend renewing in November or December. 

Steps to renew: 

1. 1. Log in to your ICA profile. 
   2. Click the “Renew to…” button next to your renewal date. 
   3. Confirm your personal details. 
   4. Generate your membership invoice. 
   5. Pay: 

• • • Online, or 
    • By bank transfer using the invoice details sent to your email. 
      • When making the bank transfer, please ensure that you select “OUR” (Payer bears all payment transaction fees) for the payment fees and clearly mention your invoice number in the payment reference. 

If your renewal date is no longer set to 1 January, this may indicate that your membership has lapsed. In that case, the system will guide you through reactivating your membership. 

Once payment is received, your membership will be renewed.
