Terms & conditions for membership autorenewal
Please read the following terms and conditions carefully before enrolling in AIA's Automatic Membership Renewal Program. By enrolling in the program, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agreed to the terms and conditions.
Membership Autorenewal Program terms & conditions
Eligibility
You must be a current and active member of AIA to participate in the Automatic Membership Renewal Program or auto-renewal. The program is optional, and you reserve the right to opt out at any time.
Enrollment
By selecting the auto-renewal option, you consent to enroll your annual dues for all tiers of membership that apply (national, state, and/or local chapters). Contributions to the AIA ArchiPac™ program, local or state-level PAC donations, and mandatory or optional chapter assessments will not be auto-renewed.
Communication
By enrolling in the AIA Automatic Renewal Program, you agree to receive renewal notifications and related communications to the primary email address provided on your AIA membership record. Upon successful enrollment in the Automatic Membership Renewal Program, AIA will send a confirmation email containing these terms and conditions. In the event AIA revises the terms and conditions applicable to the Automatic Membership Renewal Program, AIA will notify you via the primary email address provided on your AIA membership record.
Payment authorization
By enrolling in auto-renewal, you authorize AIA to charge your dues payment for the amount designated in your renewal invoice. Membership dues for national, state, and local chapters are subject to change on an annual basis. The preview of your renewal will allow you to note any changes in dues.
Renewal date
Your auto-renewal will process on November 30 for the upcoming renewal year (e.g., your 2026 membership renewal will be charged on November 30, 2025, for the membership period of January 1, 2026–December 31, 2026). If November 30 falls on a weekend or holiday, your auto-renew will process on the next business day.
Membership changes
Any changes to your membership category and/or chapter assignment that are submitted before August 31 will be reflected in your renewal invoice. Changes submitted after that date are not guaranteed to be reflected on the renewal invoice and therefore may not be reflected in the total amount charged for auto-renewal.
Invalid or declined payment
If the credit or debit card on file cannot be processed, AIA will notify you at the primary email address on your membership record and will provide instructions on updating or revising the card on file. Missed charges will be processed at the time a new payment method is provided. If the card on file is not updated and the dues remain unpaid by March 31, you will be removed from the auto-renewal program and your membership is subject to lapse.
Canceling enrollment
You may opt out of the auto-renewal program at any time by logging into your account at me.aia.org and selecting Manage My Auto-renewal or you may contact the AIA Member Support Center at (800) 242-3837, Option 2 to request an immediate cancellation.
Refund policy
Requests for membership dues refunds are reviewed on a case-by-case basis. If you are charged in error for auto-renewal, a full refund will be processed upon request.
Termination of membership and auto-renewal enrollment
AIA reserves the right to remove you from the auto-renewal program for non-compliance with the AIA Code of Ethics.
