Passport / Visa / Invitation Letter

Each delegate and accompanying person is responsible for having a valid passport for entry into Finland. Please check with the Finnish Embassy in your country to determine if a VISA is required. Participants requiring a VISA for entry into Finland are advised to submit their application in their home country at least two months prior to the intended date of travel. 
All registered delegates will receive an Invitation Letter to use if necessary to obtain a VISA. The Invitation Letter will be sent to you automatically together with your Registration Confirmation Letter.
The letter of invitation does not cover registration fees or any related expenses and is considered a formality to facilitate the process of obtaining a VISA for Finland for those delegates requiring this document. Cancellations due to VISA refusal /delay are non refundable.

Onsite registration / One-day tickets 

Full registration is possible onsite, using our self registration facility. However, to avoid paying a higher rate, pre-registration is strongly recommended. One-day registration will also be available at the Congress Centre only on the day of attendance.
