There is a reduced membership rate for the first year of membership for serving judicial officers who are first-time* members of the Association. The purchase of an additional two years membership at the full membership rate brings this membership expiry to 30 June 2029.
*AJOA’s membership fees are paid by financial year and expire on 30 June. First-time members who join the association between 1 February and 30 June inclusive receive an extension of their membership to 30 June of the following year. This membership applies therefore to first-time members who join the association between 1 February 2026 and 31 January 2027.
Please note that retired judicial officers who continue to sit on the bench in an acting or reserve capacity are eligible for the Retired Member rate. The Retired rate is lower than the New Member rate. First-time members of the Association who are eligible for the Retired rate should pay fees at the Retired Member rate.
