The yearly membership fee for fully employed people is NOK 350,-. Persons with a reduced income pay NOK 50,-. Household members above the age of fifteen also pay the lower rate.

Religious communities outside the State Church are subsidized by the state and the municipalities with an annual sum per member corresponding to the sum granted to the State Church, proportional to the number of its members. Since 1981 the Norwegian Humanist Association is regarded as equal to religious communities in this respect.  

Registered religious communities count the children of their members as members for official purposes. In order to avoid discrimination against the Norwegian Humanist Association, official support is granted to the association for those children of members who actively have been registered. We strongly recommend that parents discuss such registration with their children beforehand, especially if the child is over twelve years old. At the age of fifteen, when - according to Norwegian law - they have the right to determine their own religious or philosophical allegiance they will be automatically removed from the register.
