Overseas Membership

If you are a full time investigator, but resident and operating outside the United Kingdom, this is the applicable category. You must be aged 21 years or over and ideally sponsored by 2 professional referees but other referees will be considered.  

The requisite application form will be emailed to you automatically after payment of the non-refundable application fee AND MUST BE SUBMITTED DULY COMPLETED WITHIN 3 MONTHS.

The membership process culminates at an informal application review by video call (part of ABI quality control).

Applications require considerable administration so the fee is non-refundable. The application fee is payable using the PayPal link immediately after the on-line registration.
