Apply For a Membership

Membership is for individuals and companies (or other legal entities) who wish to become members of the Investment Migration Council, a not-for-profit association within the meaning of Articles 60 et seq. of the Swiss Civil Code and with its registered office in Geneva, Switzerland.

TWO ROUTES TO MEMBERSHIP

There are two pathways to IMC membership: the education route and the experience route. It is planned that eventually the experience route will be phased out, and the membership journey will only be possible through the education route (except for Fellows).

Membership by Education

The journey to membership via the education route is the recommended one since this strengthens the skills and knowledge of members and by consequence the wider industry. On successful completion of the Certification in Investment Migration, Non IMC Members  will become eligible  for membership  of the IMC at Associate level.
