Whether you’ve just become a BSI member, or have been one for some time, no doubt you’ll want to get every bit of value from your BSI Membership.

From 50% discounts to access to standards research experts, here are our top tips for making the most of your BSI Membership.

Tap into expert standards knowledge

As a BSI member, you have access to our Membership Enquiry Service. So, if you are on the hunt for the right standard, you can ask them for help.

You’ll be talking to professional researchers at the UK’s national standards body who all have up-to-date databases of national and international standards.

They can help you:

  • Find out if there’s a standard for a particular topic

  • Track down a standard elsewhere in the world

  • Know exactly what a standard includes and whether it’s relevant to your needs

  • Identify any changes to standards

  • Discover any relevant withdrawn standards

We’re also able to offer a short session to view our online catalogue on request. Please get in touch with the Knowledge Centre if you’d like to try it, on knowledgecentre@bsigroup.com or +44 20 8996 7004

Watch this short video to meet the people who’ll be helping you.

Save 50% on standards and subscriptions

Members save 50% on British Standards, BSI Knowledge subscriptions, and BSI Compliance Navigator core subscriptions. You can also save 10% on ISO and other foreign standards. You’ll find instructions on how to do all of this on the BSI Member Portal.

Boost your reputation, show your quality

Your digital BSI Membership badge – plus your membership certificate – instantly shows you’re committed to quality and best practice and helps you stand out from the crowd.

Every member gets a certificate and a digital badge when they join. You can also contact our customer relations team on cservices@bsigroup.com to ask for a copy at any time.

Stay in the know about standards with a monthly update

As a BSI member, you’ll be one step ahead, thanks to the monthly Update Standards spreadsheet about changes to standards. You can access the most recent edition, or an archive of previous editions, via the Member Portal.

Every month we cover:

  • New and revised British Standards (BS) that were made available in the last month

  • Standards under review

  • Published documents (PDs)

  • British standards withdrawn

  • Drafts of standards available for comment

  • New standards work started

  • British Standard implementations of the English language versions of European Standards (ENs)

  • BS implementations of ISO or IEC standards

If monthly news isn’t enough, take a look at our Members’ LinkedIn network, where you’ll receive extra daily updates and relevant standards news to help keep you ahead of industry trends.

Use your voting rights

All our subscribing members are warmly invited and welcome to attend our Annual General Meeting (AGM). This is your chance to hear from our board about our activities and plans for the future, and to vote on the Annual Report and appointment of board members. Register for the next AGM on 21 May 2025 here.
