For All In-Person Participants:

Visas are required for some nationalities to travel to Paris for this conference. Please contact your travel agent and/or the French Consulate/Embassy in your country for exact details and visa application procedures as soon as possible. Visa processing times may vary.

Participants are highly recommended to apply for Tourist Visa.

For participants requiring a visa to attend the conference, the organization will be pleased to provide you an invitation letter to support your visa application to attend the conference. Please note that visa applications must be submitted to the nearest French Consulate/Embassy in your country. Specific requirements and necessary documents for visa applications can be obtained directly from the relevant French Consulate/Embassy.

Based on your conference registration, the invitation letter will be sent to you via email upon request. Click here to check the further information about Schengen Visa requirements to visit France as per your country of citizenship.

Please be aware that we won’t be able to contact directly consulates or embassies and we do not intervene in anyway with the Visa process as the participant is sole responsible to apply and follow up on his/her Visa application.

Even with the letter of Invitation and in case we are contacted by the concerned consulates/embassies, we will not be able to support the participant visa application unless the applicant participant is fully registered to the conference and paid the registration fees. Therefore, we strongly advise all participants to complete their conference registration before applying for a visa. Please note that invitation letters cannot be provided for spouses and/or children of participants, as they are required to apply for their visas independently, without assistance from the organization.
