The CIS headquarters are in Leiden, The Netherlands. CIS's legal name is Council of International Schools, Inc. and it is a "not-for-profit" company registered in the state of Delaware in the United States.[7]

To be CIS Accredited, a school pays the membership fee and then a "registration fee" of €2,140. Once CIS Accredited, the school then pays €4,350 annually. Evaluation of the school takes place every five years.[8]

They are required to pay a fee, based on the number of place students the school has enrolled.

Every five years they require the accredited school to complete a peer-evaluation process.
