The IKA recognizes the following member types:

a) Full membership is available - subject to payment of the annual membership fee – to each national association regulating the activity of the class in that country. The IKA Executive Committee may request appropriate proof for the jurisdiction of the requesting Member in the relevant country.

b) Affiliate membership is available - subject to application – to each association regulating the activity of the class in that country. The IKA Executive Committee may request appropriate proof for the jurisdiction of the requesting Member in the relevant country. Affiliate memberships shall be cancelled once the association in the relevant country obtains Full Membership with IKA.

c) Individual membership is open - subject to payment of the annual membership fee - to any natural person, where there is no full member in its country of origin.

Requests for membership to the Association shall be requested in writing to the Executive Committee. The Executive Committee decides on the application for membership.

Interested parties for Full Membership: We can provide you with sample national class association constitutions, membership forms, questionaires etc. We can also provide you with all necessary support to set up a national class association.

Individual Membership

Competitors without a national class association, or from national class associations that have not aquired full membership rights, are required to become INDIVIDUAL member of the IKA.

Individual membership is a last resort solution. Competitors are encouraged to establish national class association.

The individual membership fee is 100 Euro per year (same as membership level 1 for national class associations)
