If you are getting an allocation, you are an ISP/LIR. End users get Assignements, not allocations.
There currently are not any fee waivers for assignments.

I just put in for some critical infrastructure v6 space and was a little surprised when I got hit for full freight as an end user. It’s a non starter for v6 on my little, local, free exchange as I assume it would be for many others. Just level the playing field so everyone pays on the same scale. That would be a start. J

If I’m an LRSA holder and want IPv6 space, I would have to sign a normal RSA for the IPv6 space and pay the fees as a regular space holder, just like any other RSA holder. I am willing to encourage IPv6 as long as we don’t get into a battle between legacy and non legacy holders over fees. Neither should be getting a “better deal” than the other.

> Thank you for your suggestion relating to charging no initial fee related to request for an initial IPv6 allocation and/or assignments for Legacy Holders that have signed the ARIN Legacy Registration Service Agreement. As this relates to fees, this will be added to the ARIN Board's Finance Committee agenda for 2010.

> Some other information related to this suggestion is that the current IPv6 waiver for allocations for initial requests and renewals in 2010 is a 50% fee waiver. For requests in 2011, the allocation fees will be 25% waived.
> In terms of assignments, the initial fee is not waived. Clients requesting assignment resources pay an initial fee per request of address space and thereafter pay annual allocation or maintenance fees related to the Organizational ID as a whole. Initial fees are to cover the effort related to reviewing and analyzing the request, whereas maintenance fees are designed to cover the overhead of maintaining objects in the database.
