NAPM dues are assessed on a calendar year annual basis. We appreciate payment of dues by Dec 31^st of each calendar year to ensure uninterrupted continuation of NAPM membership benefits.

Questions concerning dues payment options, tax exempt status, or general membership questions should be directed to NAPM at (800) 500-6276 or by email to [email protected] 

Dues Schedule Categories

Commingle Mail Service Provider (CMSP):  Commingle MSP members shall be those firms, corporations or individuals that regularly submit commingled mail to the USPS (mail prepared under Domestic Mail Manual Special Postage Payment Agreement, DMM Section 705) . To calculate your annual mail volume, use the total volume of all mail your business submitted to the USPS for the previous calendar year, including all letters and flats sent by First-Class Mail, Periodicals, and USPS Marketing Mail, and all parcels. This provides the annual mail volume amount to determine the appropriate annual dues category (see Commingle Mail Service Provider Dues Schedule).  

Multi-site Option:  A presort company with multiple sites may select either: Option (1) enroll each site as a member separately, and pay dues based on each site's annual mail volume, in which case each site will be entitled to one vote, or Option (2) join once and pay dues based on the total volume of all sites combined plus the Multi-site fee for each location (unless the member's combined annual volume from all sites is less than 25 million pieces). The below shows two examples of how multi-site options can be applied:

Example:  Company A has 4 sites with annual volumes of 80 million, 60 million, 40 million and 30 million pieces

Option 1:   Each site joins as a separate member, dues for each based on the site’s average daily volume, and each site is entitled to one vote.  Dues per site are $7,777 (80 million pcs), $4,609 (60 million pcs), $3,036 (40 million pcs), and $3,036 (30 million pcs).  Total dues = $18,458 (and 4 separate votes)

Option 2:  Company joins as one member with 3 additional sites (total of one vote).  Dues are $10,934 (210 million total pcs) plus $750 for each of the additional 3 sites ($2,250).  Total dues = $13,184 (one vote)

Commingle MSP companies electing to pay dues under the example shown in Option 1, should complete a separate Membership Application for each site and pay the applicable dues for each site based on the Dues Schedule.  Commingle MSP companies electing to pay dues under Option 2 should complete one Membership Application and pay dues and the additional site fee as described above. 

Presort Mail Service Provider (Other MSP) / Mailer Presenting Own Mailings (In-House or In-Plant): Presort MSP members shall be those firms, corporations or individuals that submit presorted (but not Commingled) mail to the USPS.  Membership dues tier is determined by total annual gross sales (all sites combined) for all services/products related to mailing/shipping or annual in-plant/mail center department budget.

Vendor: Individuals or firms that manufacture and/or sell equipment, systems, or services used by the mailing industry may join as a Vendor Member.  Such members are entitled to one vote on all issues and elections and may be a member of the Board of Directors, if elected.  To determine the correct dues category, calculate the annual sales generated for your business for all Postal supply chain-related sales (products or services utilized by customers to perform commercial mail related activities) for your company for the previous calendar year. 

Contributing: Individuals, firms, or corporations who want to keep informed on Postal and Industry changes and provide support to the purpose and objectives of our Association may join as a Contributing Member.  Applicants identified as falling into one of the other NAPM Member categories described above are not eligible for the Contributor category, unless approved by NAPM.  While not entitled to vote, such members will be able to attend informational meetings and be kept fully informed of the Association’s position and progress on postal issues as well as provide input on Postal and pricing changes. Dues are $550 annually, and additional contributions are always greatly appreciated.
