How to join the EMS through an EMS member society

Membership in the EMS can be organised via the 52 European mathematical societies, which are corporate members of EMS. Normally joining EMS as an individual member through an EMS member society is simple: one just pays the extra amount (24 euro) for EMS membership when paying the regular membership fee.
Please address an informal application to your national society.

How to join the EMS as reviewer of Zentralblatt für Mathematik

In the case of countries where the national mathematical society is not a member of the EMS or where there are economic reasons which make the payment of the membership fee through the national society difficult, Zentralblatt may arrange this payment from the reviewer's account as far as money is available there. The rates for the fee under these special conditions for reviewers of Zentralblatt are:

• 24 euro for persons belonging to a corporate EMS member society.
• 36 euro for persons belonging to a reciprocity EMS corporate member.
• 48 euro for persons not belonging to any EMS corporate member.
• 11 euro for an introductory fee.
