Cancelling your Membership

At any point after your initial sign-up or automatic renewal as an AZEVN Member, if you choose to cancel your membership, this must be done via your membership area.

No refunds will be given for cancelled memberships.

Applying to become a Member

If you choose to sign up as a Member of the AZEVN, please ensure that you enter all details correctly (especially your RCVS Number if you are applying for full membership).

In the event that your Membership Application is not completed correctly, the AZEVN reserves the right suspend your membership until the correct information is provided.

If you are unable to supply the required information to become a full member, the AZEVN reserves the right to refuse your full membership application and move your membership over to an Associate Membership.

Overseas Applications

If you are an overseas applicant to join the AZEVN as a full member, then you will need to enter in the word OVERSEAS during the application process when your RCVS Number is requested.

To be eligible to be an Overseas Full AZEVN Member, you must hold an equivalent qualification to a UK RCVS Registered or Student Veterinary Nurse and a copy of your certificate must be e-mailed through to info@azevn.org in order for the AZEVN to process your Membership Application.

In the event that your Membership Application is not completed correctly, the AZEVN reserves the right suspend your membership until the correct information is provided.

If you are unable to supply the required information, the AZEVN reserves the right to refuse your full membership application and move your membership over to an Associate Membership.
