HOW TO DETERMINE YOUR MEMBER DUES
If you're applying for full membership (valve, actuator or control manufacturer), click here to view a chart of dues amounts. Dues are based on annual net sales of all valves (including commercial and industrial valves, solenoid valves, regulators, back flow preventers, waterworks valves and fire hydrants), actuators, and spare parts. Net sales refer to U.S. and Canadian invoiced sales less returns and freight only.

For associate membership (suppliers to valve and actuator manufacturers), the annual dues are $3,090.00.
