FAQs

Who is eligible to become a member of the NCCA?

Membership is open to anyone with an interest in Dutch–Australian business relations and networking, including organisations, SMEs, individual professionals, and young professionals up to 35 years old.

Are membership fees tax deductible?

In many cases, membership fees may be treated as a business expense and therefore tax deductible. We recommend confirming this with your accountant or tax advisor.

What are the membership options available and their annual pricing?

There are five membership categories, each priced annually (GST inclusive):

  • Royal Orange – Premium corporate membership: $2500

  • Corporate Member – Corporate membership: $1500;

  • SME Member – Small-to-medium enterprise: $500

  • Individual Member – Individual professionals: $99

What is the difference between Royal Orange and Corporate membership?

Both provide strong networking and promotional opportunities, but Royal Orange membership offers the highest level of visibility, including premium logo placement, additional ancillary members, and greater recognition at events.

How do ancillary members work?

Each membership tier includes a set number of ancillary members (additional people under the same membership). For example, Corporate Membership includes up to 5 people, while Royal Orange includes up to 10. These ancillary members enjoy the same access to events and benefits.
