[edit] Direct membership

The rules of INF provide for direct membership of the INF, if there is no affiliated national naturist organisation in the country of residence^[1].

[edit] Affiliated national organisations

The INF is made up of representative of 38^[2] national naturist organisation. The rules of the federation limit membership to one national society. To by-pass this rule the French and English-speaking Canadian societies formed a partnership for the purpose of participating in the INF.

Some federations have independent youth organisations which are coordinated by the INF youth commission. Its task is to organise events and promote communication and exchange between young naturists.

It currently represents the following organisations:
