The International Statistical Institute (ISI) is a professional association of statisticians. It was founded in 1885, although there had been international statistical congresses since 1853.^[1] The institute has about 4,000 members from government, academia, and the private sector. The affiliated associations have membership open to any professional statistician.

The institute publishes a variety of books and journals, and holds an international conference every two years. The biennial convention was commonly known as the ISI Session; however, since 2011, it is now referred to as the ISI World Statistics Congress.^[2] The permanent office of the institute is located in the Statistics Netherlands (CBS) building in the Leidschenveen-Ypenburg district of The Hague, in the Netherlands. The ISI does not disclose its membership fees until an applicant has created an account.
