Fee Schedule

Overview

ARIN recovers the cost of its registry operations through annual fees charged to registry customers. All new ARIN customers must sign a Registration Services Agreement (RSA) to receive registry services.

Registration Services Plan

Organizations requesting Internet number resources (IPv4, IPv6, or Autonomous System Numbers [ASNs]) must pay the annual fee for their Registration Services Plan (RSP) as determined by the service category table below at the time the initial request for number resources is approved. This payment is considered an initial fee when an organization is receiving number resources for the first time from ARIN and will establish the anniversary date for future annual RSP payments. Future annual payments will be based on the appropriately sized RSP category as determined by the aggregate Internet number resources held on the anniversary date.

RSP Service Categories and Fees

The table below displays the annual Registration Services Plan fee per service category for ARIN customers. The aggregate block size consists of the total Internet number resource (IPv4, IPv6, or Autonomous System Numbers [ASNs]) holdings of an organization.

Service Category	Fee	IPv4 Aggregate Block Size	IPv6 Aggregate Block Size	Autonomous System Numbers (ASNs)
3X-Small*	$250	/24 or smaller	/40 or smaller	1-3 ASNs
2X-Small	$500	Larger than /24, up to and including /22	Larger than /40, up to and including /36	4-15 ASNs
X-Small	$1,000	Larger than /22, up to and including /20	Larger than /36, up to and including /32	16-63 ASNs
Small	$2,000	Larger than /20, up to and including /18	Larger than /32, up to and including /28	64-255 ASNs
Medium	$4,000	Larger than /18, up to and including /16	Larger than /28, up to and including /24	256+ ASNs
Large	$8,000	Larger than /16, up to and including /14	Larger than /24, up to and including /20
X-Large	$16,000	Larger than /14, up to and including /12	Larger than /20, up to and including /16

5X-Large	$256,000	Larger than /6	Larger than /4

*There is a temporary IPv6 fee waiver for organizations in the 3X-Small service category allowing for more IPv6 resources than normal while still remaining in the 3X-Small service category and paying only the 3X-Small service category fee. A 3X-Small organization may receive registry services for up to a /36 of total IPv6 space and remain in the 3X-Small service category rather than being charged the 2X-Small service category fee. This waiver will expire 31 December 2026.

• Organization create is $50.00 per transaction.
• Organization recovery is $100.00 per transaction.

Resource Transfers

ARIN will collect a $500, non-refundable transfer processing fee for each transfer request of registration rights to Internet number resources. Refer to the Transfer Resources page for full details on requirements and the process for transferring registration rights to Internet number resources. This fee does not guarantee approval of a transfer request.

The source and recipient organization must pay any outstanding annual fees before evaluation and any fees that become outstanding during the evaluation must be paid before completing any request.

The source (or legal successor) organization will be invoiced for each transfer request submitted; the transfer processing fee must be paid before evaluation of the transfer request begins.

Recipient Transfer Processing Fees

The Recipient Transfer Processing fee must be paid by the ARIN recipient upon approval of the transfer, prior to the allocation of the resources.

Legacy Registration Services Agreement (LRSA)

Organizations with resources held under a LRSA receive the same Registration Services Plan for their legacy resources with the only difference being that ARIN provides a fee cap on total annual fees for organizations with active Legacy Registration Services Agreements (LRSA) entered into prior to 1 January 2024. The total annual fees applicable to those legacy resource holder organizations are limited to $200 annually for 2024, regardless of the number of IPv4 legacy resources held under a LRSA, and those organizations will continue to have their fees capped for legacy resources. ARIN will increase the annual cap of registry fees for these customers by $25 per year.
