Membership fees

The membership rate for GDT members is determined by the annual general meeting. Reduced rates are available to people with disabilities (> 80%), pupils, students and unemployed persons provided appropriate proof has been sent to the Management GDT by 15th March of the current year. Full rates are due if the applicable document of proof is not provided in response to a single reminder at the very latest. Refunds will not be granted retrospectively. Reduced rates are also provided to partners of members and young persons under the age of 18. The current membership rates have been settled on at the annual general meeting in March 2009.
