annual dues

Yearly membership fees

Annual dues are fees paid once a year to maintain membership in an organization—a club, union, professional association, or similar group.

The payment typically covers operating costs and entitles the member to benefits for the coming year: The annual dues for the bar association are $450.

Dues not paid annually might be called monthly dues or quarterly dues instead.
