Why join the EMS

The principal reasons for joining the European Mathematical Society may be altruistic:

• to support European mathematicians working under difficult circumstances
• to support efforts to get backing for mathematics from the European Union
• to support networking of mathematicians across Europe

Membership options

Individuals can apply and renew the EMS membership by paying fees online in their EMS account.

The current annual membership fees are:

• €40 for persons belonging to a full, institutional or associate corporate EMS member society;
• €60 for persons belonging to a society, which has a reciprocity agreement with the EMS (see the list of reciprocity societies here);
• €80 for persons not belonging to any EMS corporate member;
• A particular reduced fee of €8 can be applied for by mathematicians who reside in a developing country from this list established by the EMS Committee for Developing Countries. This form of membership does not give access to the printed version of the EMS Magazine.

Join the EMS as a student for FREE

Anyone who is a student at the time of becoming an individual EMS member, whether PhD or in a more junior category, shall enjoy a three-year introductory period with membership fees waived. All the standard benefits will be granted during this time, except printed copies of the EMS Magazine. Apply for the student membership here: https://euromathsoc.org/submit/early-careers.

Lifetime membership for the members over 60 years old

If you would like to become a lifetime member of the EMS by paying a lump sum at a certain age, the fee would be as follows:

• €460 for persons of age 60 − 64;
• €400 for persons of age 65 − 69;
• €340 for persons of age 70 − 74;
• €280 for persons of age 75 − 79.

The person should be over 60 years old. If the age is over 79 the fee is reduced by €60 for each 5 years. Please send an email indicating your age to the EMS Secretariat ems-office@helsinki.fi and you will be sent an invoice for a direct bank transfer.

Join the EMS as reviewer of zbMATH Open

In the case of countries where the national mathematical society is not a member of the EMS or where there are economic reasons which make the payment of the membership fee through the national society difficult, zbMATH Open (formerly known as Zentralblatt MATH) may arrange this payment from the reviewer's account as far as money is available there (see above membership fee rates).
