Airfare, ground transportation, hotel, meals, travel insurance, and any other meeting or event related expenses are the responsibility of each participant.

If you need to apply for a temporary non-immigrant visa to attend an ICES meeting or event in the United States, you are advised to apply for your visa as soon as possible.  If you require a visa to attend an ICES meeting or event outside the United States, please refer to the visa rules of the host country to determine the applicable visa requirements and the suggested timeframe for submitting your visa application. You can submit ICES meeting or event information, such as the name, dates, location, and purpose of the meeting or event, with your visa application.

ICES cannot intervene with, or call or send personal letters to, the State Departments, Embassies or Consulates of the United States or other government on behalf of any meeting or event participant. However, once you have registered for the ICES meeting or event, ICES will provide you with a registration confirmation that you can use for your visa application or interview.

U.S. visa information, including required documentation and fees, can be found on the U.S. Department of State’s website at https://travel.state.gov/content/visas/en.html[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
