RIPE NCC Charging Scheme 2017
Introduction
The current Charging Scheme model is based on the principle that members should have equal fees for each LIR they hold. This model has no categories and no differences in fees between LIRs: “One LIR, one fee”. The Executive Board proposes to continue with this model in 2017.
RIPE NCC Charging Scheme 2017
In the current environment, the membership development is difficult to forecast due to the growth in the membership in recent years. Every year, members can decide to vote at the General Meeting to return excess paid fees via a redistribution to the membership. Therefore, for 2017, the annual service fee per LIR will remain at EUR 1,400.
The separate charge of EUR 50 per Provider Independent number resource assignment will be continued. Independent Internet number resources are: IPv4 and IPv6 PI assignments; Anycasting assignments; and IPv6 IXP assignments. AS Numbers are excluded from this separate charge. The sign-up fee for new LIRs will be continued and will remain at EUR 2,000.
