Visa & Entry Requirements

General Visa Information

Italy is one of the most accessible countries in terms of Visa. EU/Schengen citizens require only an ID card or passport to enter Italy and can remain as long as they wish. The Congress Secretariat will follow the procedures to obtain VISA for delegates requiring it.

It is the delegate’s responsibility to investigate the visa requirements for Italy and to apply for a visa, if necessary. For detailed information and to check your status, visit the official website of the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation.

It is highly recommended to apply in due time, as visa-issuing procedures could take up to 120 days.

Congress Visa Support Documentation

To support visa requests, the Congress Secretariat provides the following official documentation, upon proof of payment of the registration fee:

• An invitation letter addressed to the visa applicant and a visa request letter addressed to the Italian Embassy, both signed by the CEO of the Congress Secretariat, AIM Group International.
• Chamber of Commerce Company Registration of the Congress Secretariat, AIM Group International.
• Official ID of the CEO of the Congress Secretariat, AIM Group International.

The documentation must be downloaded by the delegate from their personal area, after registering their data on the Congress platform and paying the registration fee.

Please Note

• Submission of the required documentation does not automatically guarantee visa issuance.
• It is the delegate's responsibility to obtain the necessary documents on time to receive the visa.
• The Organizers and/or the Congress Secretariat will not directly contact embassies and consulates on behalf of visa applicants.
• The invitation and visa request letters are not legally or financially binding on the Congress Secretariat. Expenses related to the conference shall be borne by delegates themselves.
