The benefit period lasts for the first year of your membership. Until then, please pay your membership fee yourself, for example by using an e-invoice. We will send you an email reminder when your benefit period is about to end. ### More information [Employer fee collection agreement](https://asiointi.proliitto.fi/) Do you want to apply for an exemption from membership fee?
