Membership Fees


The New Jersey Veterinary Medical Association follows a Practice Membership structure which incorporates all practice team members (veterinarians and staff) under one membership. This allows for greater opportunities for associate veterinarians and veterinary practice team members to benefit from the programs and services offered by our association. While the NJVMA recognizes that our membership structure is designed to incorporate the entire practice, individual veterinarian memberships are available. Solo practitioners, industry veterinarians and government service veterinarians are encouraged to join! NJVMA has six membership categories though which individuals can join the association.


Membership Types

Veterinarian
An individual with a valid veterinary license.

Support Staff
A non-veterinarian individual employed at a facility providing animal care. 

Retired (FREE)
Any member in good standing who has reached the age of 70 and has retired from active service to the profession may request Retired status by write to the Executive Director. Please contact info@njvma.org for details.

Honorary (FREE)
Any individual awarded membership in the association by vote of the Executive Board in recognition of outstanding service to this Corporation, to the field of Veterinary Medicine, or to a local community, state or nation. Please contact info@njvma.org for details.

Student
Any individual enrolled in an accredited school of college of veterinary medicine or veterinary technology


NJVMA Membership Dues & Fees

For veterinarians and their support staff, NJVMA annual dues is based on the number of veterinarians at the practice enrolled as members of NJVMA. Steep discounts are offered for enrolling multiple veterinarians from the same practice.

Practices may enroll as many Support Staff (technicians, practice managers, assistants, etc.) members as they like at no additional charge above this dues rate. However, if Support Staff wish to join NJVMA without there being a veterinarian member from that practice, the Support Staff individual rate is $125 per person.

NOTE: NJVMA membership terms run concurrent with the association's fiscal year, which is April 1 - March 31. Dues or fees may be pro-rated based on when you join NJVMA.
