Letter of Invitation
The congress organisation will be pleased to send a formal letter of invitation to delegates requesting an invitation letter for visa purposes.

This does not imply a commitment from the congress to provide any financial support. Letters of invitation may be requested from the congress office. The letters will be sent by regular air mail or e-mail.
