Abstract-The cardinality of fuzzy sets was introduced by DeLuca and termini, Zadeh and Tripathy et al, where the first one is a basic one, the second one is based on fuzzy numbers and the final one introduces a bag theoretic approach. The only approach to find the cardinality of an intuitionistic fuzzy set is due to Tripathy et al. In this paper, we introduce a bag theoretic approach to find the cardinality of intuitionistic fuzzy set, which extends the corresponding definition of fuzzy sets introduced by Tripathy et al. In fact three types of intuitionistic fuzzy counts are introduced and we also establish several properties of these count functions.
