Through the BSI badge, our members can proudly and visually showcase to their customers that they care about excellence and a commitment to best practice. Pride in being part of BSI is a clear driver for many of our members, along with the more tangible benefits of Membership.
For more than 120 years BSI has benefitted the world in a profound and unique way. Our independence, global reach and access to leading-edge experts sets us apart. As the UK’s National Standards Body we’re appointed by the government to develop British Standards and represent the UK’s interests in standards development at a European and global level.
We reinvest our profits to foster progress and partnership, increasing trust between consumers, governments and organizations. Ultimately, we help business and society thrive together accelerating progress towards a fair society and a sustainable world. Find out more about BSI.
Membership is open to any organization that's committed to making positive change through standards. Our members typically use standards within their business, and come from all sectors of our economy.
We support members to implement standards and embed best practice. As a member you have exclusive access to practical tools, insights and support from our team of expert researchers, all aiming to save you time and help your organisation to perform.
Our Member Enquiry Service helps you to research and understand the standards that are relevant to you. Ask us what standards apply to you, find out about updated, withdrawn or international standards, and challenge us with your complex queries.
Generous discounts are a big part of your Membership, with 50% off British Standards and BSI Knowledge subscriptions. For other standards and Compliance Navigator, the discount is between 10% and 50%.
We value your opinions and insights. Every BSI Membership organization has a vote at our Annual General Meeting; we encourage you to attend and hear more about what we do. You can also get involved in standards development through our network of specialist committees which publishes about 2,500 new standards per year.
For many members, the BSI Membership certificate and digital badge are valuable assets that they use to build their reputation and stand out from the competition.

There’s an annual fee which is based on turnover and number of employees. If you’re a sole trader or a small business owner, you can join at our lowest Membership rate. If your employer is a member, you have full access to Member benefits and services, and your Membership Administrator can set this up for you.
There are two types of members at BSI. Subscribing members usually join because they use standards within their business and would value the benefits that we describe on this page.
Committee members bring relevant knowledge and experience to the technical committees that develop our standards. They might bring professional experience or represent a group of stakeholders such as professional bodies, charities, public interest groups or government.
