For delegates replacements a handling fee of € 150,00 will be charged, regardless of the registration fee paid and the moment in which the replacement is claimed.

4. Travel documents and visa applications

Citizens of the European Union and some other European countries may enter Italy with an identity card.

For many countries, including the United States, a valid passport is sufficient. Citizens of other countries, however, may have to apply for a visa and should therefore contact an Italian Consulate or travel agencies in their home country for further information. Please note that it can take up several weeks to process a visa application, so early application is recommended. The Conference Organising Committee cannot accept any responsibility for visa applications. Where a delegate is unable to attend because of failure to obtain a visa on time, the normal cancellation policy will apply.

If you need to apply for a visa:
  1. register for the conference
  2. pay your registration fee in full
  3. request an invitation letter

Please note that GIMBE Foundation will release invitation letters for visa applications only for delegates who have registered and paid the registration fees in full.

5. Certificate of attendance

Registered participants will receive an attendance certificate at the end of the Conference.

According to section 7 of the above mentioned law, the subjects to whom the personal data refers may exercise their rights at any moment (update, change, integration, cancellation, opposition, etc..).
