[arin-announce] ARIN to Simplify and Lower Fees for IPv4 Registrations on November 1, 2004

[Member Services]

At its August 3, 2004, meeting, the ARIN Board of Trustees voted to
simplify and lower fees for IPv4 registrations of assignments and initial
allocations. Initial registration fees for IPv4 allocations will be
reduced to be equal to the current annual renewal fees. The Board has also
made the size categories and fees for IPv4 assignments the same as the
size categories and fees for IPv4 allocations. The IPv4 allocation and
assignment fee schedules will then be identical. There will be no change
to annual IPv4 renewal or maintenance fees.

Starting November 1, 2004, ARIN will implement the unified IPv4 allocation
and assignment fee schedule as follows:

Initial registration fee for IPv4 allocations and assignments:

     CIDR Range     Category Size       Fee
     /24 - < /20      X-Small         $1,250
     /20 - /19        Small           $2,250
   > /19 - /16        Medium          $4,500
   > /16 - /14        Large           $9,000
   > /14              X-Large        $18,000
