IEEE offers an electronic membership option to new and renewing professional members who reside in a country/region where the per capita Gross National Income (GNI) is US$15,000 or less, as determined by the data published by the World Bank. Though published annually, IEEE uses a three-year average of the GNI for each country/region to determine eligibility.

Below is a list of the qualifying countries/regions where professional members can select the electronic membership option priced at US$86-US$102. Undergraduate students in these countries automatically receive lower student dues priced at US$14.

Countries/regions marked with an asterisk are eligible for electronic membership priced at US$35-US$49. Undergraduate students in these select countries automatically receive lower student dues priced at US$5.

Please note, no other promotions can be applied to undergraduate student dues in these countries.

Do you reside in a country/region not on this list? IEEE offers other reduced dues options to members who are unemployed, retired, or meet a minimum income threshold. Learn more about these special circumstances.
