Join the Communist Party

Apply to join the Communist Party by paying an initial online registration fee (£6).

Once you have registered an online application you will be contacted by a representative of your local Party branch for a membership interview. New members are only admitted to the Party on acceptance by their local CP organisation. If your application to join the Communist Party is refused, you will be refunded your online registration fee, with £1 retained to cover administration costs.

Please note if you apply to join and withdraw your application, your application fee is not refundable.

Communist Party dues vary from £1 to £50 per month depending on members’ income.

You must be aged 16 or above to join the Communist Party. (If you are aged between 16 and 29 your application will be referred for complimentary membership to the Young Communist League (YCL). If accepted into Party membership, you can decline complimentary membership of the YCL by notifying the central office.)

It has been reported that certain payments made by credit/debit cards fail due to PayPal only accepting payments from cards with 3-D Secure authentication. If you encounter this issue, please email membership@communistparty.org.uk and we will process your application, centrally.

NOTE: Please ignore the 'Failed to update contribution in database' message that appears upon making payment. This is a technical issue and you can rest assured that we will have received your registration fee.
