You do not qualify for the reduced fee.
You do not qualify for the reduced fee and do want to become a member of the Special Interest Group Computer Linguistics (CL). (Only possible in combination with DGfS membership.)
The reduced membership fee is only available for members without or with a low income (up to 50% TV-L E 13). Members who would like to make use of the reduced membership fee are required to send in the form for reduced fees including proof of the income situation to the treasurer by 31 March of the respective year. If you do not provide the form, the DGfS assumes that the reason for the reduction no longer applies and the full membership fee will be charged.
For members who transfer the sum in self-payment, the amount must be effected by 31 March annually. Members whose collection authorization was cancelled and members who have not effected payment by end of June will be reminded to effect payment within a period of four weeks. In case a reminder in the following year is not followed by a payment, membership is terminated according to the Society Statutes.
Confirmations on the amount of the payment of membership contributions for payments effected by collection authorization are the collection authorization notices of the respective bank. For self-payment, the deposit or tranfer receipts of the respective bank are proof. Generally, German financial authorities recognize these confirmations as proof.
This means of payment is obligatory for all new members residential in Germany since 1 January 2001. Membership fees will be collected yearly in November from your account. You will receive an invoice in advance by e-mail.
This means of payment can only be used by members residential without Germany and by members who have signed up in DGfS before 1 January 2001. Self-payment are required to effect payment of membership contributions by 31 March of each year onto the following account:

In case you have a bank account in Germany, or can carry out SEPA transactions, you may give DGfS a collection authorization (payment by direct debit). If you haven’t yet set up a direct debit authorisation, please use to form in the download section above.
Unfortunately, DGfS cannot collect money from accounts with banks outside of the SEPA area. In this case you would be required to effect payment by EU-standardized money transfer.
For members who are non-residential in Germany who have a bank account in EU it is possible to transfer the membership contribution without bank fees as EU-standardized money transfer. Please use the appropriate EU-standardized money transfer form. In case of doubt please contact your bank. Please enter the information as below into the form:
