Procedure & guideline for membership registration
The Secretariat reviews your submission and sends the non-refundable application fee invoice based on your membership category.
Once payment is confirmed, the Secretariat reviews all submitted documents. If any items are missing, the applicant is requested to provide them, and when the documentation is complete, a physical verification of the applicant’s facilities and training capability is scheduled.
The verification team conducts the site visit and evaluates the applicant based on the membership requirements.
The verification report is reviewed and a decision is made on the applicant’s membership status, and if approved, the applicant receives an official Membership Certificate and becomes an OGTAN member.
