The Rotary International Board of Directors has adopted these minimum standards for an effective club:

• Pays its Rotary membership and district dues without outside assistance
• Meets regularly
• Makes sure its members subscribe to The Rotarian or a Rotary regional magazine
• Implements service projects that address needs in the local and international community
• Receives visits from the governor, assistant governor, or an RI officer
• Maintains appropriate liability insurance for the geographic region in which it is located, or pays mandatory liability insurance with the club dues invoice (United States and its territories only)
• Acts in a manner consistent with the Rotary International Constitution, Rotary International Bylaws, and Rotary Code of Policies
• Updates club membership and officers in a timely manner at Rotary.org, via data integration, or by sending information to [email protected]

• Maintains cooperative relations with the district
• Cooperates with Rotary International by not initiating or maintaining litigation against it, The Rotary Foundation, associate foundations, or the international offices of the Secretariat
