Rechartering
Unit and Membership Renewal
The Boy Scouts of America offers an online member and unit renewal process. Listed below are several resources to assist with smooth and improved renewal processes. All units and members currently registered with the BSA need to complete this process on a yearly basis.
Use these resources to help your unit’s renewal. You can also visit the Internet Recharter Responses to Forum-Related Questions/Discussions helpdesk for additional questions and timely assistance.

The rechartering / renewal process is changing on March 1, 2024.
Please review the information below to understand the upcoming changes
In summary, the difference between the rechartering process is that unit renewal and member renewal will no longer be one and the same. Membership is now a set 12 month term from the time of registering regardless of when the unit renews.
