It is also possible to become a direct member of the GdeB. Membership is based on our statutes. You can apply for direct membership in writing to the GdeB board.

The GdeB charges its members an annual membership fee, the amount of which is decided by the general meeting. The current basis for the levying of contributions is the GdeB statutes and the contribution regulations.

The contribution for direct members for 2025 is € 60.00, decided at the General Assembly on 28.10.2023 .

The contribution for direct members is due on January 1 of the respective year and is payable by March 31 of the same year.

Payment of the annual membership fee is preferably made by SEPA direct debit; bank transfers are also possible. An additional processing fee of €5.00 will be charged for payment by bank transfer. Cash payments are not accepted.

If you have any further questions, please contact the office or the membership administration. Write to us at mitglieder@gdeb.eu.
