J. Curran, ARIN President and CEO
23 April 2013

2. New ARIN Fee Schedule
Aligns the ISP IPv4 and IPv6 fee schedules for ISPs into a single set of registration services plans based on total resources held
Provides $100/year end-user maintenance fees per address block and ASN number
Legacy resource holders under agreement fees same as end-user fees
Fee schedule structure was presented at ARIN 30 in Dallas in October, followed by formal community consultation

3. New ARIN Fee Schedule (more)
Adopted by the ARIN Board in January 2013, effective 1 July 2013
Corrected typo in original schedules regarding xx-small category and IPv6 resources
Implemented fee estimator tool in ARIN Online to allow users to calculate revised fees
Note – Each organization ID (OrgID) receives one invoice covering all resources held
Fee change is revenue neutral for ARIN; it provides for a long-term stable fee structure

4. Community Discussion
While the original consultation had only modest community discussion, we have benefited from an abundance of discussion since that time…
Suggestions for fee restructuring have included:
Additional IPv6 fee waivers
Fee structure based on organization revenue size
Fee structure based on number of total resource records held
Fee structure linear to total IP addresses held

5. Fee Structure Review Committee
The ARIN Board of Trustees has directed the Finance Committee to convene a Fee Structure Review committee which shall include selected volunteers from the community, will consider various long-term fee structures, and report back to ARIN Board prior to the ARIN 32 meeting
