Renewing your membership is easy
How to renew
Each year, we’ll send you a renewal notice in the post about four weeks before your due date.
If you need to change your credit or debit card details or to update your direct debit, contact our Membership Services team, Monday to Friday, between 8 am and 6 pm GMT on +44 (0)1438 765678.
If you don’t receive your renewal notice
It’s worth checking that we have the right contact details for you on your IET account.
Why should you renew?
Membership tells your peers and your employers that you’ve committed to your continuing professional development.
By being part of one of the world’s largest engineering, technology and science institutions, you get uninterrupted access to products and services like our libraries, journals and events.
Having trouble paying?
Don’t worry. We offer reduced rates to people in certain circumstances – take a look at the criteria to see if you qualify.
If the economic climate has hit you particularly hard and you’re going through a difficult time, perhaps because of lost income or redundancy, our benevolent fund, Foothold may be able to help.
We’re upgrading our contact centre to make it quicker and easier for you to speak to the right member of our team.
From Thursday, 30 to Friday, 31 October, our phone lines will be temporarily unavailable while we upgrade our systems. For any urgent enquiries during this time, please email membership@theiet.org and we’ll get back to you as soon as possible.
From Monday, 3 November, we’re moving to one central phone number for all enquiries - which will be 0333 049 9123. This change will make it easier to reach the right team quickly and improve your experience.
Thank you for your patience as we improve how we connect with you.
